Hello All,
I bought 3 oak boards rough sawn with the plan to plane and joint them into a worktop for my finished butchers block.
As you can see in image 1 they were all bowed, cupped and warped.
I decided to cut them into strips to make it easier for me this didn’t really go to plan either.
In photo 3 is where I’m at now, they are all the same width and are all nearly the same thickness.
I have created a shooting board of such to be able to plane the end grain flat.
How do you suggest I can flatten all the other faces?
Thanks so much for anyone willing to offer advice.
