Dimensions: 1.5mm x 100mm x 1000mm. Pattern Pitch width = 5.0mm. Obeche/Pear Wood Boat deck wood sheets are of course used in making model boats but they can also serve well for representing fassades or flooring in architecture model making. They are always made up of two different coloured wood types: the wider strip represents the so-called "plank", the narrower strip the so-called "joint" (which, however, is not recessed). The production of boat deck wood is a fairly elaborate process: Wooden boards with veneer are glued together in alternating directions to make a block which has a height that corresponds to the width of the future "plank" strip. This block is then cut vertically to the glued layers into 1.5 mm thick wooden sheets and then sanded.
