I had a couple of lipping planers when I had my business i did a lot of custom veneered panels with solid edging, they work pretty well but can be a bit tricky going around say a mitered or butted corner. In the end i found it difficult to get it flush every time without nipping the face of the panel here and there, and with employees it became even more inconsistent. I ended up using a stroke sander which aside from a really expensive wide belt with a segmented pad and a bunch of gizmos ?is the best weapon imho, but does require skill. Now I just get the thickness pretty darn close and take a swipe or 2 with a hand plane

David,
I assume you do not have MFK700, supposedly the go to tool for flush trimming. I have one but have not used it yet. One of those good deal but.

Seems like the workpiece would have to be perfectly flat for this to work. Since edging is commonly applied to plywood, I am suspect of it¡¯s effectiveness consistently.

Does anybody have one of these? Any comments? Useful? Lipping planer easier to use?
Thanks,
Dave
