Hello, can anyone near Worcester plane + thickness me some Oak boards, about 10 off, L~2.5m x W~300mm x t~25mm.

 

The chap that normally does it is away for a few weeks, and I need them done within that time.

 

Rough price and tome scale, any help greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Tom

Buy yourself a dewalt dw733. Can be picked up for £250-300 second hand. And will plane that lot up in less than an hour.

I think they would need to be jointed (flattened) first you carnt just send them through a thinknesser and expect good boards.

You can if there only one Inch thick and you make a jig to stop the flex. I have a jointer but before I did I use this method.

Thanks for the replies, I don't have space to get a planer (much as I'd like to).

 

What I need is some one to plane them for me, it's only a few boards...

 

(FYI, the guy that normally planes boards for me just has a thicknesser which does the job very well)
