Kiln-dry rough sawn I do not sticker in the shop. After the milling commences I very carefully sticker and stack on a flat surface.

Well I got it. With some gift cards, its about 2K, and 24 months interest free payments, so overall feel good about it.

The Lipping planar is awesome! Just when I think I have all the tools I need, I find this. It is expensive, but might be worth it in the long run. I...

I'd call whoever makes popsicle sticks.
