Thank you for the quick replies!

I am pretty knew at this stuff--I don't yet own a planer, so I like the
idea of finding a mill. I also did not know the jargon ("5/4")--this
will hopefully help me not sound like an idiot when I start making
calls. Thanks!

When you throw your new found knowledge around, be sure you pronounce
it "five quarter" (although it really means "five quarters"), not
"five-fourths" which it appears like it ought to be. That way you
won't get sent to the door store again.
