14 ABSTRACT An integral wood veneer strip (10) having first, second (62) and third (64) mutually generally perpendicular portions is produced simply and easily. A number of similarly shaped thin strips of wood (11), with adhesive (12) between them, are placed together to form a linear laminate. Before curing of the adhesive, the laminate is placed in contact with a particularly contoured female die surface (25), with a flexible band (13) over the laminate. A male die surface provides a pressing force at a central portion of the band to press the laminate into close conformance with the female die surface, and the ends of the band are attached up to rollers (17, 18). The rollers are rotated to tighten the ends of the band, also bringing the ends of the laminate into tight contact with the female die surface. The adhesive is cured while the laminate is in the bent position (the curing may be facilitated by using microwaves from source 57), and then the laminate is released after curing, and may be utilized as decorative molding for furniture (66).
