It is considered the epitome of solidity and strength. However, chipboard and pine fashion have almost pushed oak out of furniture construction. And she can look really great: for example like our beautiful corner cupboard.
A perfect small hanging cabinet like from the furniture maker: in classic form, solid work, and with a really nice wooden surface. He'll definitely get a spot: in the niche above the corner seat in the kitchen or living room, for example. And it is always a nice job for the experienced Seibermacher. Raincoats or scarves can then be stored behind the doors, oak-veneered blockboard and solid oak wood, requires great care. Because the veneer on the blockboard is at most 0,4 mm dick. Sanding or planing to adjust non-flush edge bands is almost impossible.
If you like the piece of furniture and you enjoy a demanding carpentry work, you will go to work competently when procuring the materials: Because veneered blockboards are rarely found in hardware stores, it's best to go straight to the timber dealer. In any case, you should check, what price you have to pay there for a square meter of blockboard cut. The calculation here is different, a price comparison is recommended! With a bit of luck, you can also get planed strips of solid oak from the wood dealer in the dimensions of the cabinet door frame wood, also 50 x ca. 25 mm. Take a sample of the blockboard and choose the strips in one colour, which comes close to that of the face veneer.
