1. True Up One Face – Feed one face of the board through a jointer. Make thin cuts with each pass until the entire surface is flat. 2. Plane to Thickness – Place the surfaced side (STEP 1) face down and feed the board through a planer until the opposite side is flat. Plane both sides of the board until you achieve your desired thickness. Make thin cuts, alternating sides with each pass. If, during the planing operation, you notice the board twisting, warping or bowing, start again with STEP 1. 3
