today’s video is about stitching veneer

Stitching veneer is a process used in woodworking and furniture making. It involves joining together thin slices of wood, known as veneers. This creates a larger, continuous surface. This technique is often used to cover large areas with a decorative wood finish, such as tabletops, cabinetry, or paneling.

Here’s a basic overview of the process:

Stitching veneer allows craftsmen to create large, decorative surfaces. These surfaces feature intricate patterns and designs. Achieving this would be difficult or impossible with solid wood.

  1. Selection: Choose veneers that match in color, grain, and pattern to ensure a seamless appearance when joined together.
  2. Cutting: Trim the edges of the veneers to ensure they are straight and can be joined without gaps.
  3. Aligning: Arrange the veneers in the desired pattern, often bookmatched or slip-matched, to create a visually appealing design.
  4. Stitching: Use adhesive tape or a specialized veneer stitching machine to temporarily hold the veneers together. In some cases, a thin adhesive thread or glue is used to secure the edges.
  5. Pressing: Use a veneer press to apply pressure. This bonds the veneers permanently to a substrate, such as plywood or MDF, with adhesive. This ensures a smooth, even surface.
  6. Finishing: Sand and finish the veneered surface to enhance its appearance and protect it from damage.

This is an update I am working on the drawer at this point. I have all the details on the outside and it is ready to age. I use a different process that ages the pice in about a half hour using a water based product that brings the tannons out and darkens the wood.

The Dual Impact of Corporations and Small Businesses on Society and Politics

In today’s complex society and political landscape, the influence of corporations and small businesses is profound and multifaceted. While large corporations often wield significant power, sometimes resulting in adverse societal impacts, small businesses frequently emerge as champions of community welfare and economic resilience. This essay explores how corporations can harm society and politics, and how small businesses serve as a counterbalance, promoting positive change.

The Influence of Corporations

  1. Economic Disparities: Large corporations often prioritize profit maximization, sometimes at the expense of equitable wealth distribution. This can lead to significant economic disparities, where wealth is concentrated in the hands of a few, exacerbating social inequalities. For example, multinational corporations may exploit tax loopholes, reducing their contributions to public services and infrastructure.
  2. Environmental Impact: Corporations, particularly those in industries such as fossil fuels, agriculture, and manufacturing, can have detrimental effects on the environment. Their large-scale operations often result in pollution, deforestation, and resource depletion, contributing to climate change and environmental degradation.
  3. Political Influence: Corporations wield considerable political influence through lobbying and campaign contributions. This can lead to policies that favor corporate interests over public welfare, undermining democratic processes and marginalizing the voices of ordinary citizens.
  4. Consumer Culture: The marketing power of corporations promotes consumerism, encouraging a culture of excess and waste. This not only strains natural resources but also fosters a societal focus on material wealth over community and personal well-being.

The Role of Small Businesses

  1. Community Engagement: Small businesses are often deeply embedded in their communities, fostering local connections and supporting community initiatives. They contribute to the local economy by creating jobs and keeping money circulating within the community, which can help reduce economic disparities.
  2. Environmental Stewardship: Many small businesses prioritize sustainability and eco-friendly practices. They are often more agile and innovative, able to implement green initiatives that larger corporations might resist due to cost or complexity.
  3. Political Participation: Small business owners are typically more accessible to their communities and can serve as advocates for local needs and interests. They can influence local policies in ways that reflect the values and priorities of their communities, promoting a more democratic and participatory political process.
  4. Cultural Preservation: Small businesses often reflect the unique character and culture of their communities. By supporting local artisans, farmers, and entrepreneurs, they help preserve cultural heritage and promote diversity in the marketplace.

Conclusion

In conclusion, while corporations have the potential to drive economic growth and innovation, their focus on profit can sometimes harm society and the environment. In contrast, small businesses offer a model of economic activity that prioritizes community welfare, environmental stewardship, and democratic engagement. By supporting small businesses, society can work towards a more equitable, sustainable, and inclusive future. Balancing the power of corporations with the positive influence of small businesses is crucial for addressing the challenges of today’s society and political world.
