Minimum thicknesses of wood

[AndyT]

But BB, is "deeping" in there? Or is it entry 10,001?

(It's in the relatively lightweight "The Woodworker Dctionary" by Vic Taylor, Argus Books, 1987, 260pp.)

The Glossary of Wood was first published in 1948; it was a compilation from the glossary column that ran for a decade in "Wood" magazine. You can be sure that if readers of the magazine has disagreed with an entry, they would have said so, thus these are effectively reviewed and accepted meanings.

Onward;

Deep Cutting or Deeping. Resawing timber parallel to its wider faces, as when converting deals to thin boards

Re-Saw.To Re-saw means to cut converted wood into smaller sections.

(there was no entry for "blind cutting" nor "blind sawing")
