Finally you will have resawn until there is no more thickness to resaw, and it is time to take it all to the planer to surface the rough resawn faces. This is a simple procedure for pieces 1/4" and above in thickness. But if you want stock thinner than this a couple of problems arise that are easily solved with the simplest jig you will ever make and the greatest gift to woodworkers since duct tape- double-sided carpet tape. All planers have a minimum thickness that they will plane- from as much as 1/4" to as little as less than.
