Hakone-Panel parquet?
Hello all carpenters and wood enthusiasts of all kinds 😀
I am aware that this is causing me a lot of trouble,
but that's just part of it, so no need for such warnings 🙂
I'm in the process of renovating a room and want to use it as an opportunity to try my hand at DIY again after an eternity.
To the point:
I'd like to try making plank panels (40×40 or 50×50) using the method used for Hakone veneer. The same method, just a few sizes larger and cut into 0.8cm slices (which are glued to the base plank) instead of planned into sheets. And I'd only make a sample; I'm sure I have limitations. ^^"
What I am looking for here is the wisdom of more experienced people who can point me to probable problems, possible solutions for them or reasons why the project cannot work or the end result would be problematic :3
I'll link another video to show what technique I mean.
Really, thanks to everyone for answers,

Do you understand the basic principle of this technique? That's the most important thing. First draw the design you want to make and disassemble it in pieces that you have to make as a wooden slat with the appropriate cross section and merge into pattern blocks. Whether you're picking up the whole thing on paper-thin leaves, or sawing it in thicker plates, it's only important at the beginning because you have to make the cut in addition, so that you can then crush it into sawdust.
It can become a challenge to get sufficiently different colored woods. You will have to look for them in the specialist trade for tropical and colored woods. Consider that, depending on the fineness of the details, you will produce more cut (=seed flour) than finished parts. So you need fine saw blades, you have to work very accurately and precisely plan.
Thanks for the helpful answer!
Do you know where to find a selection of wood in Austria?
On demand:
The more experience you have in woodworking, the more complex patterns are feasible. The better you know with the measurement and exact production of triangular cross-sections, the more interesting the works, My questions were about where you are standing, to make such decorations with regard to the desire.
More accurate than in my answer, I could not say that in a larger circle around my place of residence without starting my own research. An additional tip are landscape gardeners and tree nurses. In their work, interesting woods often fall to us, which are useful. You have to go through the area with open eyes and ask curiously here or there when sawing.
I've been working for a long time on a wood mosaic work to show a peacock. The individual parts are thereby wedged until the gap leaves hardly any light. Then I glue groups of individual parts which are to be adapted to one another in the last step and finally glued to the base plate. Then the surface is ground smoothly and somewhat protected against wear. a slightly different approach, but you could also assemble the smaller parts mosaic-like and smooth the joining surfaces with a vertical grinder.
