What is Wood Planing?
Wood planing is the process of smoothing and leveling wood surfaces using a planer. This vital woodworking technique removes imperfections, adjusts thickness, and prepares the wood for finishing. Our planing services can handle slabs up to 20 inches wide, ensuring that you get a consistent and beautiful surface for various applications, including furniture and cabinetry.
Slab Flattening: A Key Component
Slab flattening is essential for those working with live edge slabs or rough-cut lumber. Uneven slabs can present challenges during construction, impacting the final product’s quality. Our slab flattening services can accommodate slabs up to 4 feet wide and 11 feet long, allowing us to create a perfectly level surface that is ready for sanding and finishing. This process enhances both the aesthetics and functionality of the wood, making it ideal for your intended projects.
