hand planing a panel flat
hi,
I have 3 boards that are 1x4 maple to edge glue together into one table top board. Does each board get hand planed flat first or do I hand plane the boards after the the completed glue-up is done? What is the proper procedure to follow for edge joining several boards together? thanks, Dimitri |

What is the proper procedure to follow : for edge joining several boards together? Dimitri might like to look at my web site - Planing Notes - Rub Jointing.

Next, clamp the first two boards in a vise, with the back of #1 against the back of #2. Plane the edges straight, and as square as you can. You are planing BOTH edges at once. Next, clamp #2 and #3 in the vise, with the back of #2 against the back of #3. Plane both edges straight and square. Planing the boards together, back to back, will allow any departures from 90 degrees to cancel when the boards are assembled. Having a shooting board will help with the process.
