    Im knowing all these terms in Danish but not in English, so when trying to write a detailed log, im often stopped due to language barriers.
    Im probablly gonna be adding new machines tools in this post if i cant find the terms anywhere else.
    Hope that someone will bother to help me out :)

    1. This machine is used for planing wood\ boards in 0.1mm thickness. put the object in one end, it will come out the other planed to the thickness you want.

    2. This machine is used for grinding wood\boards in 0.1mm thickness. put the object in one end, it will come out the other planed to the thickness you want.
    It has three big rolls of grindingpaper inside.
    Example: one can put the first paper to be a corn 80, netx to 120 and last to 180. then you will go through those 3 processes of grinding your workpiece with those 3corns in a matter of seconds.

    3. This is used for glueing veneer for example, onto MDF boards.
    It presses the objects together under heat you choose yourself, under the preassure of upto 300bar.




    [​IMG]
    4. This is used for rolling on glue onto an object, like a brush. However it does the job quicker and much more even layers.

    5. I know this is a boardcutter. But whats the english terms of the parts you put your workpiece up against to get the right width\ lenght of a workpiece.




    I would really like to know the English terms for these tools \ machines, since im gonna be using the terms a lot in my projectlog.
    Anyone who can help me ???

    Thx in advance :thumb:

    The 3rd one I could guess at, but I don't want to be wrong. The 4th one I have not seen before, but I'll look around.

    The 5th is a fence.

    I will edit this post if I find the others.

    Hope this helps!

    *Edit* 4 appears to be a glue roller.

    Also, 1st is a thickness planer

    3rd - Vener Press
    4th - Vener's glue roller
    5th - Bench saw and fence

    Often Thicknessers and combined with plainer for the smaller wood worker

    Here are the common American names and spelling for these tools:

    1: Planer
    2: Wide belt sander (and the stuff inside it are sanding belts)
    3: Veneer press
    4: Veneer glue roller (though usually the roller is just a roller, and doesn't have the glue dispenser)
    5: The machine is a table saw. The part you are asking about is the fence.

    Nice, keep em coming. Im gonna count an average for which ill make usage. :clap:
    Oh yeah. Table saw. Sowwy :lol:

    6.What about this one ?
    This saw is for cutting up big boards into smaller pieces. You can fit boards thats 3meters high and 6 meters wide into it.
    Its not cutting as precise as i need for the cabinets, so im only using it to cut up the MDF i need within 1mm of the final measurements.
    It can cut vertical and horizontal.

    I think you pretty much have the answers but the first pic is a thicknesser, a planer would be used first to gain a flat face, then the board would be run through the thicknesser planed side down to keep both faces true.

    At least thats how i do it in my workshop.

    Pic 5 i would class as a panel saw due to the large sliding carriage on the left.

    Pic 6 would be a vertical panel saw.

    everything else has been mentioned

    Nope that's a jointer


    jointer are for the edges of the board, planers are for the large surfaces

    Hmmm, i do however think that this does both. Thats what the "fence" is for. ( Se, im learning already :D )

    First i use the big surface to to plane one side. Then the fence to get the workpiece in the angle i need ( Usually 90 degrees offcourse ).

    Am i wrong ?

    Somewhat but not really. You can't "plane" a large surface with a jointer, and you can't joint with a planer because it won't open up far enough.

    This can be pulled all to the left giving me some 50cm of surface to plane a wide area. first then when i have a planed side i will use the fence to get the angle i need.
    Thinkh that i might not understand what you mean ! ? :)

    Yes that is what i class as a planer, Americans do tend to call them jointers, but its swings and roundabouts imo. A UK cabinet maker will call it a planer and American cabinet maker will call it a jointer.

    would you mind giving the danisch names for those tools? no particular reason, but i would like to see if they divert far from dutch or not:)

    edit: if something is "swings and roundabouts", that means that is one of the little differences in UK and US englisch. like hood and windschield and swings and roundabouts :D. at least, i think that is what my teacher told me.
