Abstract

A veneer lathe comprising a piercing roller and a guiding member for producing a veneer which is free from piercing scars. A third rotational shaft (25) is raised from the position where the piercing projections (27a) of the piercing rolls (27) are pierced into the outer peripheral wall of the log (3) to a position which enables the distance between the tip end of the piercing projections (27a) and the backing plate (5a), the concave portion (4) and the guide member (6) to become larger than the thickness of the veneer (T1), and then, the third rotational shaft (25) is moved away from the log (3) up to a position which makes the piercing projections (27a) impossible to pierce the outer peripheral wall of the log (3), after which the log (3) is rotated to perform the cutting by means of knife (5).
