Re-laying Oak floor boards question.

Do you have a table saw? After you straighten one edge, you can rip all the boards to equal width on the TS.

Not at the moment, but I'm prepared to buy one if I need to.

Any tool that will index one side from the other would work. That includes table saws, planers, drum sanders, etc. However, you would either have to do all boards at one time or set up the tool and not change it until all were done if you were doing a few at a time.

You could also do it with a hand router with a bearing bit and a template of the desired width.

Keep in mind that commercial, solid wood floor boards do *NOT* touch adjacent boards except for a small area at the tops; i.e., the edges are not perpendicular to the faces.

Wouldn't you have to mill all the T&G after that?

To cope with expansion of the board if they get more humid.
