A method of fabrication begins with the formation of a receiving panel (200) which defines a plurality of spaced-apart parallel plows (206) extending longitudinally. The receiving panel (200) has an open surface along which the plows (206) are exposed and an opposing surface (202) from which the plows are not accessible. It is then preferable that the veneer layer be formed of wood, but the substrates can be formed of a less expensive material, such as composite material. Once the receiving panel has been fabricated, it is bowed to form an arc about an axis parallel to the plows (206). While the receiving panel is in this bowed condition, strips (210), preferably made of wood, are inserted in the plows. An adhesive is applied to an interface between the strips (206) and the surfaces of the plows and edge strips. The receiving panel is then caused to return to an unbowed condition, which may be accomplished by simply removing the forces which caused it to assume a bowed condition. The composite panel can be cut through the strips to form a plurality of segments that can be used as engineered mouldings. Cutting can be done by passing the composite panel through a rip saw having a plurality of parallel blades. |
