Anyone know Wood Wiz?  Slab flattening

Barry Irby

Just stopped at a shop that has a Wood Wiz. The machine is from Australia. Has a table vaguely similar to a Wood Mizer sawmill and an overhead "Router". Makes short work of flattening slabs and can be converted to sanding them nice and smooth.

I was Impressed. Table was long enough to do a 10 or 12' and wide enough to accommodate about 72" wide. It could do one side in less than 30 minutes. It could also route edges straight enough for edge gluing. The flattening is good enough to laminated pieces face to face.
