Description of Optional Machining Services:

Finish Planing

Finish Planed lumber is planed smooth on both faces to a pre-determined thickness. Our state-of-the-art double-head helical planer eliminates tearing of the wood fibers common with straight knife planers and the joining bed actually flattens each board to a true dimension allowing for proper storage and further machining.

Resaw

The process of re-sawing a plank into thinner boards - either straight or on an angle or bevel.

SLR1E

Straight Line Rip 1 Edge is the process of ripping a straight edge on one side of the board. Our equipment maintains an 8' glue-line quality edge, suitable for glue up and joinery processes.

SLR2E

Straight Line Rip 2-Edges provides a straight edge on both board sides. Our SLR2E will provide an 8' glue-line quality, suitable for glue up and joinery processes. 

Since hardwoods are sold on a random width basis, SLR2E will also yield random widths.   If your project calls for uniform widths or you have limited machining capabilities, you should instead consider a ready-milled S4S product .
