<p>Nothing against obtaining more tools but you might also look for
a door making shop. They would likely have an industrial size wide
belt sander. I've brought them wide glue ups for tables and they
did not charge me an outrageous amount to run them through the
machine. <br>

<p>Or, along the lines of tool acquisition, a jig to hold a router
would allow you mill off an fairly exact amount of material. I
made one out of aluminum channel & angle. Woodpecker Tools
sells one (at a a hefty price...). <br>

<p>Maybe a drum sander like this ... <a href="https://www.grizzly.com/products/Grizzly-18-1-1-2-HP-Open-End-Drum-Sander-w-VS-Feed/G0458Z" target="_blank">https://www.grizzly.com/products/Grizzly-18-1-1-2-HP-Open-End-Drum-Sander-w-VS-Feed/G0458Z</a>
... and appropriate infeed, side and outfeed tables to support
the door as you do each edge.<br>

<div>I am installing a barn door in my recently
remodeled house and have come up with a problem I would like
the group’s help with. I need to put up a pair of 8’ x 30"
barn doors, one of which will slide in next to a tall kitchen
cabinet. So, not exactly a pocket door, but it needs to fit
into a pocket. <br>
