Most places will not let you use their planer if the wood did not come from their shop.
Yeah you ain't kidding there, knives are expensive. Nephew destroyed a new 24" set in one pass.

No one (in their right mind) will put that through a machine that is theirs until you get the glue blobs off the surface, prolly with a belt sander. Chunks of solid glue are hard on knives. Good luck on your project, though. Got a 23 inch wide project of my own in the works. Please post what you find out.
So my 23-inch wide project is almost ready for a wide belt sander, but I didn't see any hits in this thread except the somewhat intriguing floor sander idea. Foundery is $50 + $20. Not needing continued access to their tools, I'd prefer not to drive there twice. I'd much rather just pay and be done. Job is 2-inch thick teak, call it 77" long. Will be cleaned-up and ready to see the tools of a professional when I arrive.
Anyone have, or know anyone with access to, a wide belt sander?
