Lamination is different than veneering.
Bent lamination table.
Long fascination with wooden boat construction exposed me to bent and laminated ribs that provide precise shape and great strength to weight ratio.
So the first order of business is to build the form followed by cutting the wood into lamination strips.
Once the glue dries the workpiece will hold it s new shape.

The table looks great in our home and would look great in yours too.
In veneering the layers are oriented in an alternating fashion while in laminating the layers are oriented in the same direction.
Remember the fondest memories are made when gathered around the table.
Commercially made laminate layers are not widely available.
So i set to work making a diy wood dining room table with a bent lamination feature.
With glue between each lamination a press is used to bend the bundle of laminations around a form.
Bentwood tables my awareness of steam bent and laminated wood began with a wooden tennis racquet which i still think is a beautiful artifact.
My wife and i decided we needed a new dining table and we wanted something a little different.
