More WOOD !

The piece on the right is Raw...the piece on the Left has been Planed.

After the Planing you do the Edging...to smooth out the Edges, of course!

  • After you Plane & Edge you take this tool from The Egyptian times & measure the thickness of each piece. They all have to be the same! And, apparently, the Egyptians knew how to do that! Sorry, no photo of the Egyptian tool is currently available.
Is there still an Egypt in this crazy world we live in?
