Hi all--
I'm hoping that there's some kind soul in the Portland/Vancouver area who can help me out. I picked up some used maple bench slabs that I want to use as a desktop/countertop in my den (which I've just finished building the cabinets for). The slabs are a little rough, so I was hoping there was someone out there with drum or wide belt sander (24" capacity) that I could rent/borrow some time on to freshen (and level) these babies up. I tried ripping one into
12" sections and running them through my planer, but the grain goes every-which-way in these laminated slabs, and I got wicked tearout, with sharp blades & wetting the wood before running it through. That one will go into the shop.
C'mon...there's gotta be somebody out there...Please???
