I used the bandsaw the resaw to the thickness I needed – 1\/2 less the thickness of the blade. I’m not sure if there’s a way to get the center exact when resawing, I was off by about 1\/16th and was left with 2 pieces each of the same thickness, 4 total.<\/p>\n

There were a few wobbles, but I know the blade is pretty close to the correct tension. I’m not sure if there’s a tool – a tensiometer – like you use to check spoke tension when building bicycle wheels. Maybe?<\/p>\n

I don’t have a power planer, only a handful of #4 hand planers. Working in the shop with the material locked in between the bench dogs and the front vise, I planed everything to final thickness by hand.<\/p>\n
