The surface cum thickness planer is the right woodworking tool for planing down very thick wooden boards to the required thickness. This surface finishing tool slashes the surface of wood stock into even layers to produce boards of various dimensions. Moreover, a thickness planer can create uniform and flat wooden boards with the same thickness throughout their length.
The jointer is mainly used for joining two pieces of wood. It is an ideal tool for milling a flat, even surface on one side of a wooden board. It is also the perfect for joining a wooden surface exactly perpendicular to the edge of another wooden piece. They are available in various shapes and sizes.
The drill press is a multi purpose woodworking machine. It is a vital component of the wood workshop; that is extensively used for drilling accurate holes in the work piece. Wood workers also use it to bore holes at different angles in a precise manner. The drill press holds the work piece stationary while the drill moves axially to penetrate the wooden material in order to make holes.
Every woodworker also uses either a circular saw or a table saw. The table saw is regarded as an essential tool of any wood workshop. Large table saws are rapid and safe tools. They are commonly used to neatly cut large pieces of timber. Several tasks can be done on the table saw. It is a versatile workshop tool around which a woodshop is designed.
