Total novice here.
I have some old Oak boards that (I believe) were used as molding at one point. I don't have the exact dimensions with me, but they are about 3/4" x 4". They are varnished on two sides.
What would I do to remove the Varnish and true them?
My thought was to 1st go over them with a belt sander to remove the varnish. Then plane both faces. Then run the edges through the jointer.
Would this be a good way to renew them? Or is there a better method?
Thanks in advance!
