I'm in need of some help. I have just started woodworking. When i go
to run the stock on the jointer the last inch of the stock gets cut
deeper than the rest of the board. Am i applying pressure wrong or
what? Also i bought yellow pine at home depot not in the rough to
build a mock up. is that going to be hard for me to work with
compared to another type of wood?

It sounds like your outfeed table is too low. It should be at the same
height as your cutter blades. Push a board part 1/2 way and then stop the
joiner. Now look closely at the gap between the outfeed table and the bottom
edge of the board. The table should be raised until it just touches the cut
edge of the board.

I think that after you make the above adjustment, you won't have the problem
that you have been having any more.
