I have a doorway which was 23" wide. By removing the decorative wood I've exposed two hefty uprights, 6-1/4" x 2-1/2" (they built well long ago), and the doorway width is now 608mm. which doesn't really leave clearance for 600mm wide appliances.
So I'd like to take about 10mm off each of those uprights, reducing the
2-1/2" to about 2-1/8". This is just the doorway into what would once have been called a scullery so beauty doesn't matter, though it'll look OK after the uprights have been sanded, nail holes filled, and painted.But a power planer might be a slow way to remove wood.
And removing the uprights for sawing would be difficult and would cause a lot of damage.
Can anyone suggest something quicker than planing? (No, not an angle grinder!)
