Their personal customization service is also available to meet any specific requirements you might have.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">What is Digital Veneer?</span><br /><br />The Digital Veneer™ process decorates 3-dimensional and flat surface products made from plastics, metals, foam, wood, composites and any other structural material with a variety of finishes which exactly replicate the look and feel of natural and man made materials.<br /><br />Digital Veneer™ is a fraction of the weight of real wood veneers and stone equating to lighter structures and significant fuel savings in aircraft, boats and automobiles.<br /><br />Digital Veneer™ has the following three significant benefits:<br /><br />• Environmentally Responsible: With exotic hardwoods, teak and other timber products becoming hard to obtain the ability to replicate the look without using valuable scarce resources.<br /><br />• Lightweight: Using foams and advanced composites we are able to make hand rails, tables, flooring and cabinets that weigh 60 - 70% less than comparable units made from wood.<br /><br />• Durability and Flame resistant: Considerable cost savings in maintenance can be achieved using 'Digital Veneer'TM. Utilizing our high solids top coating system developed in conjunction with Awlgrip outside products need only be re-coated every 2 - 3 years opposed to every 2 - 3 months for wood / varnish. As the sub straights are made from a stable material they will not warp, split or swell. The composite construction makes the product stronger than real wood products.<br /><br /><a href="mailto:lance@digitalveneer.com">Contact Lance Sheppard</a> of <a href="http://www.digitalveneer.com">Digital Veneer</a> for more information

Like Carbon fiber, wood is a fiber which has holes inside for water which contain air. So, when the wood gets a shock, it expels the air much like a sneaker sole. This absorbs the majority of the shock and provides a seamlessly smooth ride.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8yj9Sl60Bi9qvH-s7-Jj1myHl_DFM7WxiA0hxhff_tHzeDl1hyphenhyphenL4g8hKhYQvhWj7wM_z3dqJ0ekkSFAOubeOMebGbQPKm6OfnZ9wrxdZhm5OesR_NBR1XsKyFem_uFgo3Mbwal05EpHc/s1600/07_2011_01_15_145502.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577762963220975218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8yj9Sl60Bi9qvH-s7-Jj1myHl_DFM7WxiA0hxhff_tHzeDl1hyphenhyphenL4g8hKhYQvhWj7wM_z3dqJ0ekkSFAOubeOMebGbQPKm6OfnZ9wrxdZhm5OesR_NBR1XsKyFem_uFgo3Mbwal05EpHc/s400/07_2011_01_15_145502.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 395px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKrVQMNIm8qvIlV12OuRf5lXFcxLkUz0ctRgPFJKgA_DfaPUR7rchfNOA5mtrLVmZL8PLes9K8Bfkb6vFyqavUDMUTuQVo1MmZAlLmriZy4ilQXiEwLIocit2EkZ2oUkM0B706OkmvfTA/s1600/09_2011_01_15_145528.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577762750712592418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKrVQMNIm8qvIlV12OuRf5lXFcxLkUz0ctRgPFJKgA_DfaPUR7rchfNOA5mtrLVmZL8PLes9K8Bfkb6vFyqavUDMUTuQVo1MmZAlLmriZy4ilQXiEwLIocit2EkZ2oUkM0B706OkmvfTA/s400/09_2011_01_15_145528.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 395px;" /></a><br /><br />Despite the fact that many people see his bikes as a 'design project', Sano considers safety and functionality first.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR_VIdQ3lACEqSjvbOoqoX3NEWqJ-r_wNvlmNnaLyFo8RZxfzESWeDrD8C3vLHDXkr-Tusn-1oMKJLltNkEzz0onZHJchYruy73Wdmafv6PbLK0uJCzbjV52A9vz9wFCjVY-YXLoJn2sE/s1600/workshop.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5577769746521905394" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjR_VIdQ3lACEqSjvbOoqoX3NEWqJ-r_wNvlmNnaLyFo8RZxfzESWeDrD8C3vLHDXkr-Tusn-1oMKJLltNkEzz0onZHJchYruy73Wdmafv6PbLK0uJCzbjV52A9vz9wFCjVY-YXLoJn2sE/s400/workshop.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 523px; height: 392px;" /></a><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">above: The Sanomagic workshop</span></span><br /><a href="http://sanomagic.world.coocan.jp/Lineup/english_sanomagicbikelineup.htm"><br />Mahogany Bikes made by Sueshiro Sano.</a>

With a background in graphic design and the urge to create something new, Jen sketched a design for a coaster that she would love to see on the shelves of her favorite shop. With the help of some awesome people she was able to have her design protyped through laser cutting. After that, the ideas just keep flowing.<br /><br />By using modern manufacturing techniques, and a little elbow grease, peppersprouts is proud to offer an affordable, well designed product.<br /><br /><a href="http://shop.peppersproutdesigns.com/"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5542501818132939682" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-ooKIGiCfITIdGDX961_gyQU6vV27gtcP_EDwwJdCu1mFp03cvlz_mBEPHyIOFJImib4iMiuf9SWlYZYHlZmCYTWNQtwjZCQ3MR5HYmXqabZMn36v4xYrknzZUpq3aQ-Tc5oFZqIZH5GU/s400/logo.gif" style="cursor: pointer; width: 197px; height: 73px;" /></a>
