Anybody know what machinery/equipment is used to pin groove (or is it
called
reeding?) timber batons? I've googled et al and can't find any info on
it,
which leads me to think I may be using the wrong name for it. What I
want
to end up with is the sides of timber batons grooved with parallel ribs
each
about 4mm across and in relief (not grooved into the wood as in fluted
grooves). You see this in some garden structures, pergola legs etc. -
basically what I want to use it in myself.

I wondered if you could do it with a planer/jointer with special blades.
Anybody seen this done?

Anybody got any experience of this?

Many thanks,
Neil




Ain't got a clue what ya mean? perhaps an ascii pic would help?


Okay understood - I'll take a photo and post it somewhere for reference.

Cheers - Neil
