Tech/Engineering - Mechanics / Mech Engineering / boat building
Portuguese term or phrase: charrion faciado
Hi - this is part of a transcript of a boatbuilder talking about his work. I think 'charrion' may be 'charriot', which may mean carriage, and that 'faciado' may be 'faceado' (squared?) - but I'm a bit out of my area of knowledge here! Can anyone shed some light on what the term in EN is? Hopefully the context will help.

Olhe os braços aqui, são pequeninos não são!? Isto tem 20cm de altura.
— Isso não passa na serra de fita pois não?
— Então não passa?! A gente tem folhas especiais para isto. Ela é serrada num charrion faciado e depois a gente corta-o. Isto tem 20cm!

The country is Portugal.

Thanks in advance

Asker: Thanks Mark, yes I realized it must be some kind of spelling error.
