We have all heard the term "hit or miss". What does the term mean in the world of wood?

Does this have something to do with thumbs?

;-) No

Good guess, but the use of hammers and ensuing black thumb nails is not the answer.

Awright....The Answer

There was just no stumping the panel today. Most answers are correct. In surfaced lumber, hit and miss is a series of skips by planer knives with surfaced areas between skips.

I cant't afford to send everyone a Golden Uni. So just exect a few assorted parts.
