PLANING WARPED PIECES

If the wood to be planed is dished or warped, take light

cuts until the surface is flat. Avoid forcing such material

down against the table; excessive pressure will spring it

while passing the knives, and it will spring back and

remain curved after the cut is completed.

PLANING SHORT OR THIN WORK

When planing short or thin pieces, always use push

blocks to minimize all danger to the hands. Fig. 40,

illustrates using the Push Blocks properly.

DIRECTION OF GRAIN

Avoid feeding work into the jointer against the grain as shown in Fig. 42. The result will be chipped and splintered

edges. Feed with the grain as shown in Fig. 43 to obtain a smooth surface.
