Assume the panel has been milled to final thickness, but in the middle
there's a little dip at one of the glue joints, leaving a 1/16" ridge
about a foot long. Wood is white oak. Ignoring sandpaper, what tool
would you use to even out the joint? I'm thinking of a cabinet scraper
or maybe just a smoothing plane. At work I just grab a Dynabrade with
some 100grit and feather it in, but I was wondering what the
Neanderthals would do...

Unless this is on the underside where no one will see it, you are out of
luck. A 1/16" isn't going to hide. Mill it to a new final thickness or
recycle it.
