Why?

You are trying to do the job the hard way.

I
do expect to do some sanding, but I'm trying to minimize that step.

Why?

A drum sander makes your life much easier.

Have fun.

Your grandfather would have used a Stanley joiner plane, a #7 or a #8,
or something similar to flatten that glue up. Well sharpened, you'd be
done in less time than it has taken to read all of these posts. ;-)

Not that the rest of us would have enjoyed it as much.

Sometimes a simple tool is absolutely the right tool. And it doesn't
cost $10k.

Back to your regularly scheduled hobby.

Patriarch,
whose woodworking time today was consumed by driving 75 miles to pick up
USED IKEA shelving with my son... Yes, I was more than a little
conflicted. Melamine and particle board. Yuck!
