Hardwood Floor Scraping Tool Source Anyone?


Anyone know where to get a floor scraping tool to handscrape a floor?
I have a client who wants the handscraped effect on about 800 ft of douglas fir.

I'm looking for one with a convex blade that's about 3 to 4 inches wide.
I've looked at spokeshaves, convex planers, small scrapers for detailed woodwork.

Anyone know of a source?

Check out this tool. It is a festool planer but you can get a blade to give you the handscraped look for alot less work. Look at the undulating blade and pic. http://www.festoolusa.com/ProductDet...539&tab=access
