Newbie timber worker requesting input from "old-hands" about milling of re-claimed hardwood floorboards.
My wife and I are building a studio; and everything is recycled. We've already made our own kingpin trusses, and built all the sub-floor. We are looking to build a platform floor.
The 85mm floor boards have a lot of damaged T&G. We had planned to re-machine this, but are concerned that due to existing bow in some of these, i won't be able to pass these through the spindle moulder without first re-machining these square, and losing a lot of the board width.
Are there any "tricks" to this process that might help to minimise any wasted boards? Is it possible to re-machine recycled boards, or is this near impossible???
Thanks for any experienced input. Cheers Russ & Christine.
