Les dents sont très fines et disposées pour travailler dans les deux sens : la moitié des dents est orientée vers la droite, l'autre moitié vers la gauche. C'est une scie qui tranche le bois sans le déchirer, et on l'utilise pour le débit des feuilles de placage [...] et pour les travaux de marqueterie [...] 1, record 3, French, - scie%20%C3%A0%20placage

for "saw cut veneer" : Veneers are cut in two grades or thicknesses, known as saw cut and knife cut. The first named are the thickest, and vary in thickness from 1/32 to 1/16 of an inch. They are cut from the log with a large circular saw, and usually yield about 12 sheets to the inch. Knife cut veneers are much thinner, modern machines making it possible to get from 50 to 100 sheets to the inch, the very thin ones being used as picture mounts. These are cut with rotary and flat knives. In saw cutting the log is well steamed and placed between two stocks, like a leg in a lathe, and under a knife for its whole length. The log is now forced round and against the knife which drops the required thickness at each revolution. By cutting spirally the grain is accentuated and enlarged. 3, record 4, English, - sawn%20veneer
