ABSTRACT:
A thin wood dimensionally stable flat laminate panel made out of one or more wood veneer sheets attached to one or more sheets of core ply material such as chipboard by adhesive. The thickness of the panel is in the range of from about 0.080 inches to about 0.180 inches. Apertures passing through the panel are positioned around or arranged along the edges of the panel in order to decrease warpage of the panel due to moisture passing to and from the wood veneer sheets at the edges of the panel as a result of moisture passing to the atmosphere from the sheets and from the atmosphere to said sheets. The apertures are preferably spaced the same distance apart. The apertures may be formed by using a commercial sewing machine to position the stitching along the edges of the panel. The stitching provides a capillary "wicking" action facilitating venting of the moisture from the wood veneer sheets to the atmosphere. Stitching may also be used to attach a bias cover material around the edges of the panel. The bias cover material helps to prevent splintering and cracking of the edges of the panel as well as adding a decorative appearance without decreasing the "wicking" and venting action of the stitching and apertures around the edges of the panel. The thin wood laminate panel may be used for notebook covers, clipboards, folios, book covers, decorative boxes, table tops, or many other applications.
