Surface grinding.

<< < (2/2)

vtsteam:
So, neotech, you would like relatively fast stock removal to a thickness that by eye looks right.  Rather than trying to machine something to a precision tolerance and finish. That's what most people think of for a surface grinder.

And you'd like it to be driven by a stage with a magnetic base, rather than having to hold the knife blank with fingers against a belt sander, as you do now. So that sets the requirements.

But, maybe what you want is a thickness sander for metal rather than wood. If you do a search  for "Thickness Sander" you'll get a fair number of hits for plans and photos of wood versions. That might give you some ideas.

NeoTech:
I will hit the google.. Thickness sander sounds about right. No idea what it was called. =)
