My Neighbor at home owns a large printing business and has production paper cutters that precisely cut 6" tall stacks of paper in a hydrualic guillatine fashion. He told me I could bring up a stack of veneer and try to join it. I was wondering if anyone has tried this and what results could be expected? Maybe I'm wasting my time ( and veneer) or maybe this could save a lot of time seaming veneer?

Greg,

I know they do make guillotine cutter for veneer but I do not know if a paper one will work as well.

I would like to hear how it goes. Could you post your results after you try it?

Sincerely
Darryl Keil

Greg,
I used to own a guillotine made for cutting paper. The material to be trimmed was held down by a manually tightened screw pushing a cast iron beam set very close to the blade.
It worked very well. I know that several veneer suppliers use guillotines as well.
I sold mine when I moved my studio—it was very heavy and I didn't use it enough to move it. Ah, well, you can't keep everything.
Best,
Tom
