I'm thinking in terms of something for primarily facing slabs of

Sources, plans, options?

Some day, I'll take the time to read the question first. g

The best bet is to make a drum sander. Dunno 'bout CNC for that.
Djoutube is your friend.

Thanks.

I'm going to talk with him about CNC and a router rig.

CNC is probably not necessary , except in a very basic sense . Move router
to limit switch in Y , which trips the X axis to move a preset distance and
send router back , where it trips a limit on the other end . Biggest
problems I see is overall levelling of the whole assembly and keeping the
router in tram - you'll want to use at least a 3" or bigger flycutter type
cutter . The big CNC router systems in use in cabinet shops can shave a 4' x
10' piece to within a few thousandths .
