MHRestorations 2 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I have a 16" wide walnut board with a lot of cupping. Sending this through the planer is not an option. Wondering if ripping it down the middle, joining the edges and glueing up as a panel would be an option? This is for a shelf, and unfortunately it came out of the kiln like this when I picked it up from my supplier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chestnut 5667 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 That is exactly what i did for these benches can you find the seam? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MHRestorations 2 Posted October 30, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Sure can't. That looks really good. When you ripped down the middle, was there still some cupping on each half? I believe I would still have a little left to take care of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coop 7616 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 I did the same to a small table top. And the narrower the piece, the less wood you loose to the jointer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah i did have to flatten each piece but it meant taking off 1/8" material instead of 3/4". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
