I'll go ahead and fess up to my ahhhh shall we say miscalculation.
Yesterday, I finished trimming out the bookcase I've been working on and feeling pretty proud of myself because I really like how it has turned out (pictures to follow after finish and install). Still had to make the doors for the lower compartment pretty simple raised panels. What I generally do when making the panels is plane to 3/4 then glue the panels up then final mill to 5/8", that way I don't have to worry about being real precise in my glue up. This is what I did here, it wasn't until I was laying in bed last night that I realized that I had glued up a 20" panel and only have a 15" planer :o:o!!!!!!!!!!!! Guess were gonna see how well the WoodMaster 26" drum sander will perform as a planer.
