Hi all
I'm new to forum. Would like to ask a few questions and get input.
I have some red gum slabs and am keen to getting them surfaced to sanding ready for sanding stage.
Is the wood wizz the way to go?
What would be the norm price for surfacing per metre?
Has anyone used a big drum type sander/ or would this just follow the contours and not bring it dead flat?
Has a home made setup with 2000 router and large bit been successful by anyone for multiples of slabs?
how soon after dressing would one want to seal them to stop them from twisting etc, would imagine ASAP? After sanding to finish Would a person have time to finish 3-4 coats on one side before turning to complete other, or is it an immediate process turn and do coats in rotation?
What products recommended for good natural finish?
I would be thankful for your input!
Thanks
Lazza.
