A lot actually curves around a knot or where a limb may have been. Do you get tear out on those type boards? If so you will get it also going cross grain. |

OBTW...presuming your panel is at least somewhat smaller than the planer capacity, use as much of an angle as you can rather than running thru directly at 90 degrees... -- |

Super thin cuts, and super sharp blades would be a must I'd think... -- Jack Tolerance is the virtue of the man without convictions. |
