ABSTRACT:
Rolls of paper are converted by unwinding, cutting and stacking into a relatively high stack of paper sheets of a predetermined uniform size. At least one of the vertical corners of the stack is removed by running an electrically driven manual planer down the corner so as to leave each sheet with one or more corners having a notch for use in orienting the sheet such as in feeding it into a copy machine. The planer is equipped with guide means so that the corner notches all have the same predetermined size and shape. The planer is preferably equipped with a vacuum hose which removes the debris as it is formed and conveys it to a vacuumized collection chamber. Preferably, the stacks of paper sheets are accumulated onto the deck of a pallet having on the underside a support integrally formed from a sheet of material so as to have parallel channel formations adjacent to and inset from opposite sides of the deck. It is also desired to provide a center-post or pedestal. One or more of the corners of the deck are preferably removed to accommodate the planer and to serve as a chip breaker for cleanly cutting the corner(s) from the bottom sheet(s) in the stack.
