Hi folks. I have a fair amount of 100 year old 2 inch maple tongue and groove flooring, and I'd like to glue this large face to large face to make a work bench top. I realize that I'll have to machine the bottom side flat. Which would be better to use, a 10" table saw or a router table? I do have a 2.5" carbide straight bit for the latter. The other face is covered with a very thin layer of poly varnish. Do I have to remove this, or could I just sand it lightly and glue it? I'm a newbie and so any constructive suggestions are welcome.
