  • the final intended thickness of the three-dimensionally deformable wood veneer is produced by the final removal of this excess at least 5% of the thickness.
  • the "excess 5% of the thickness” can, for example, be cardboard or the like, which is glued on before processing and then removed again by cutting and/or grinding after cutting and producing the shear-deformable cross-connection.
