cutting the strips & preparing them






The first task was to cut the boards into 7,5mm X 28mm strips, 4m lenght. For that I have used a circular table saw, and all the strips were the afterwards run troug the planning machine to an even thickness of 6mm. After that it was time to do the bead&cove. On Friday, I have worked with my father in law, who is a master woodworker, and we cut & planned all the strips in 8h. It was very exciting to see the wood boards transform into thin and flexible strips.
After a long day of work, there was some strips and a lot of wood shavings, which were the resoult of the boards beeing 40mm thick, and that meant that a lot of wood went into dust when preparing 28mm strips.
