Newbie at this still learning. I am m,ill some lumber for a 3/4" x 30" x 84" top. Couple pieces at bowed like this. I like to leave 3" to 4" extra for snipe etc... To reduce the bow, would you cut it down to say 88" from one end of equal amounts off either end, assuming to splits etc on the ends. thanks.
