Wood Surfacing

Description

Wood surfacing is a critical finishing process designed to smoothen the wood surface, enhance its dimensional accuracy, and make handling safer. This process compensates for potential shrinkage during the seasoning phase by marginally increasing the wood dimensions before surfacing. It also helps correct some distortions that may occur as the wo...

Transcript

Wood surfacing is done to achieve a smoother finish, ensure more accurate dimensions, and make handling safer.

Dimensions of wood are marginally increased when surfacing is done before to compensate for shrinkage that occurs during the seasoning process.

Distortions that occur during the seasoning phase can be corrected through sur...
