Yeah, a very sharp knife on a lathe like machine.Â* Little waste!
VERRRRY, VERRRRRRRRRRY sharp, indeed!
And to really boggle your mind, just how sharp are the cutters that are
used for for making "3 ply" plywood that is only 1/64" thick?? That is
not even a hair thicker than .005" for each ply, assuming glue is
thinner than that.

When the plies are that thin, you don't need glue. The molecules just get all tangled
together. ;-)
