Looked at this web site, very impressed with all the work that went into
this tutorial.

I am in the same situation but with a lot of walnut and cherry, some of
which is 8/4 up to 12/4. I need some of that thickness but want to resaw
some of it to get down to thinner stock.

Where in the multi-step process would I do the resaw operation? It would
seem that I need at least one good edge and face, correct? Would that be he
step to go to resaw or should I take the stock all the way to 4 square and
then resaw and plane the resawn face?

Thanks for the help.

I am buying alot of quartersawn white oak in the rough and I had a
question. I need to mill it in my Delta 12" planner but since both the
top and bottom are rough is there a proper way to ensure I have a flat
board when I finish milling it. The lumber does not have a smooth
surface on the bottom when I first put it into the planer but I want to
make sure that it remains flat as I mill it so when it it flipped over
to do the other side the board is flat or does it matter.
Thanks,
Mike
