resawing
Splitting lumber thinner
Resawing is cutting a piece of lumber lengthwise to produce thinner boards.
A thick plank might be resawn into two or more thinner pieces, maximizing yield from expensive wood.
The technique requires a bandsaw or specialized blade: I'm resawing this walnut into bookmatched panels for the cabinet doors.
