A thickness planer is a woodworking machine to trim boards to a consistent thickness throughout their length and flat on both surfaces. It is different from a surface planer, or jointer, where the cutter head is set into the bed surface. A surface planer has slight advantages for producing the first flat surface and may be able to do so in a ...
Craftsman No. 5 jack plane A hand plane in use. A hand plane is a tool for shaping wood using muscle power to force the cutting blade over the wood surface. Some rotary power planers are motorized power tools used for the same types of larger tasks, but are unsuitable for fine-scale planing, where a miniature hand plane is used.
A wood shaper used in 1925 with obsolete and hazardous flat-sided tooling, and no safety equipment. The primary safety feature on a wood shaper is a guard mounted above the cutter protecting hands and garments from being drawn into its blades.
A jointer cannot be used to create a board of even thickness along its length. For this task, after jointing one face, a thickness planer is used. Thickness planers and jointers are often combined into one machine, with the work piece passing underneath the same rotating blade for thicknessing, but in the opposite direction.
The jointer plane, also known as the try plane or trying plane, is a type of hand plane used in woodworking to straighten the edges of boards in the process known as jointing, and to flatten the faces of larger boards. [2]
A planing mill is a facility that takes cut and seasoned boards from a sawmill and turns them into finished dimensional lumber. [1] Machines used in the mill include the planer and matcher, the molding machines, and varieties of saws. [1]
Flat-sawn wood often exhibits "flat-" or "slash grain", where the angle between the visible growth rings and the width of the board is 45° or less. [4] This makes the wood vulnerable to deformation as it dries, or if later exposed to moisture.
Marking out or layout means the process of transferring a design or pattern to a workpiece, as the first step in the manufacturing process. [1] It is performed in many industries or hobbies although in the repetition industries the machine's initial setup is designed to remove the need to mark out every individual piece.
