Hi, thats my first post here:)
I dont have a wood planer, but a 8x4 cnc router and last week i finished to build my 4th (rotary axis) assembly that is mounted on the table and now i am able to machine all surfaces of e.g. squared timber stock material.
When machining top and bottom of e.g. 700mm squared timber, the one end is about 0.2mm thicker than the other end. This is something i can fix, by programming or just shimming the tailstock to be at the same center height as the chuck on the other end, but i am still wondering how straight does wood need to be to glue it together, side by side to build table tops? Is 0.2mm (about 0,008 inch) too much?
I mean, thats an error in thickness between top and bottom surface and as long as all the pieces have a straight surface and is not wobbly, this shouldnt be a problem if i later machine all sides and top/bottom surface, after gluing together all pcs for the table top, but still, i want to ask people with a bit more of experience:)
Thanks in advance!
