    Default WOODWORKING QUIZ for 25 Oct 04

    Good Evening Friends,
    While planing lumber through your benchtop planer. What is the maximum thickness that you should set you planer each time for ease of planing and making it easier on your planer?

    Default WOODWORKING QUIZ for 25 Oct 04

    Good Evening Friends,
    According to the conversion chart 1/32" = 25.4MM and unless the chart is wrong that is what I would run for the most part till I get down to the nitty gritty and then I would go to 1/64" cuts. However I thought that 25.4 MM was equal to one inch, I'm confused.

    Thank you for your support.
