    Update: I just planed it down with a BU Jack, set the blade out a little farther than usual when planing end grain and put a lot of force into each stroke. Planed from both ends in to avoid splintering. Didn't take long at all. Thanks for all the great suggestions everyone!

    Getting it done!

    By now doing it likely took less time than it takes to read this thread.
