Anyone seen a jointer that has a fixed blade? What I'm
thinking is something like a jointer plane held upside
down with a power feeder that rams the board over it,
creating a nice smooth shaving along the length and width
of the board. Have some strong featherboards pusing from
the top and the side, and then a piston type thingy or
something that feeds the board through.
Hmm. If you turn the blade lengthwise and apply it to a
rotating log instead of a sliding board...
That's what I'd call making pencils the _hard_ way. grin
This is one of those backward tools. The shaving is the product
(veneer) and the pencil is the waste (-:
