PART TWO: But how did the columns turn out?! Modern Mill is so versatile!
What happens here
After cutting the bevels, use a handheld router to create a decorative profile or a specific edge detail along the long edges of the planks. This step adds a refined, finished look to the column before assembly. The worker carefully guides the router along the length of each board.
Goal: Add decorative profiling to the plank edges
