Abstract: Provided is an inexpensive raised woodgrain finish decorative material that exhibits design properties similar to those of actual wood by the effect of reproducing visual appearance and feeling and has a short production timeline. The raised woodgrain finish decorative material has a substrate, a first raised section provided on one surface of the substrate, and a second raised section provided on the one surface of the substrate in a different location than the location of the first raised section, wherein the length of the first raised section is longer than the length of the second raised section in the lengthwise direction of the substrate, and the height of the first raised section is higher than the height of the second raised section in the thickness direction of the substrate.

Abstract: An elongated metal simulated log siding panel has a curved portion that simulates the curvature of a natural construction log. A plurality of longitudinally extending and randomly transversely spaced permanent bends in the curved portion simulate hew lines of a natural construction log, thereby creating a more natural appearance. Rotating disks compress the metal into an elastomeric roller to create the hew line-simulating bends.
