Thicknessing

More work running things through the thickness planer. There is a little indicator on the front where the wood goes in, so I stick the tip in there and rotate the handle to bring the indicator to where the plane will just take off a little bit. The hard part is getting a flat surface on one side so that you end up with something straight. Running wood with a warp in it through just gives warped wood of the same thickness. Sometimes it is just easier to sit under the wood and hold it up on the shoulder than try and keep a hold of it while reaching down to grab the handle.
