Hi,
I'm new to this site and not 100% sure if this is where I was meant to post this question (sorry if it isn't)
Anyway down to business. I am a current year 12 student and for my major work I am making an out door kitchen. I just had a few questions about sanding solidtimber.
The material i'm using is 20mm thick Jarrah. Now my joining mythod is a little unorthodox, and may appear confusing. I have joined 31 pieces together face on face (There are 10 in total all in varying lengths)
As you would expect there are a few machining marks, and spots due to glueing. Along with a few uneven edges because of cramping.
Was just wondering how I should tackle sanding this job? I used an orbital sander with 80 grit garnet papaer and was able to remove any marks but it turned out uneven which will be a major issue when it comes to finishing my project.
Sshould I just send it all through a drum sander to save myself time?
