Went to a woodworking show in Toronto yesterday and while wandering around,
I came across a display of Laguna bandsaws. I was extremely impressed by the
veneer strips they were cutting off blocks of hardwood.

The blades on the Lagunas were about 1 1/2" in size. The veneer strips were
less than 1/16" in thickness and about 8" x 6" in size. I'd categorize them
to be as flawless a cut as I've ever seen. Didn't bother to ask what one of
these monster machines sold for because I knew I wasn't ready to trade the
car in for one of these beauties. But one has definitely been added to my
wish list.
