The Art of Creating Segmented Pen Holder Blanks with Laminated Wood

What is the laminated wood process?
The laminated wood process involves thin pieces of wood of different materials and colors being pasted together in a certain order. After high-temperature and high-pressure treatment and using machine extrusion, the glue between the thin wood pieces cures, forming a whole piece of wood. This process enables the wood to gain good stability and beauty, which is very suitable for making pen blanks.
How to choose laminated wood materials?
When making the blank for the segmented pen holder, we need to choose the appropriate laminated wood materials.
