Wood Paper Grain Direction – Long Grain and Short Grain Explained

We are often asked What is the difference between Short Grain and Long Grain? In this quick video we will show you the difference in Real Wood Paper Grain Directions. 

When you bend with the grain, our wood paper sheets are more flexible. When you bend against the grain, our wood paper sheets are more rigid. So depending on your particular project and use, grain direction can be a very important consideration.

Materials Featured: On the left is our Cherry .025″ thick wood back Short Grain and on the right is our Maple .025″ thick wood back Long Grain. Both are standard stocked in 5″ x 7″, 8.5″ x 11″ and 11″ x 17″ size sheets.
