How to make a nice scarf with a belt sander : 10 minutes to make the
scarfing device, 5 minutes to make a perfect scarf. You need :

- two pieces of wood, glued and screwed on the plywood

1) adjust and wedge the assembly into the belt sander.
2) the scarfing angle is adusted with "h" ( see the figure )
3) align the edge of the plywood to be scarfed along the edge of the
workbench
4) move back and forth the belt sander along a guide.
