    Default Does anyone know how the edge of this was wrapped

    Does any know how this edge was wrapped? Steamed? Vac pressed? I'll have to go and take a look at it myself, but I just don't see where an end seam would be. The radius is quite tight on the ends as well. Would it be a soft wood like birch or something?

    Thanks

    The way I would do it is just with long strips of 0.5mm (0.02 inch) veneer and contact adhesive. The joins may be cut on a large angle to make them less obvious.

    Laminated up and the curve on the top edge routed?

    I've made something similar, On my version it was made out of two long straight pieces with a long 'u' shaped cut out on the inside and outside

    Tricky to describe, but it you imagine the light wood on the picture, cut at either end and straighten the side out.

    The pic doesn't show the end, if there is a vertical joint then that is how it was done. It would also be easy to hide with veneer.
