going across the lip is going to be going cross grain, so I wouldnt be
trying that. Set it for the lowest setting that will take a cut, and go the
length and width of the prominate board, till your close to level. Then
finish it with sanding.

use
sandpaper to take down a 2 mm rise the width and length of one of the
boards, you'll be there forever and a day.

Given that I only have a power planer, am I right to put it on a 0 cutting
depth and go accross the lip?
