I tried resawing an 8/4 slab (6inx2ft) this weekend into 3/8 sheets. The plan was to mill them down to 1/4 for some boxes.
Well, every damn piece came off the slab warped. I thought one might come off touching end for end it was so bad
Did I just get a chunk with a lot of tension (very little figure in the wood), or is Jatoba just like this naturally?
A piece of ash I resawed came out good, though one of the pieces started warping after cutting....
I'm using a 1/2 in 3TPI blade, the panels are coming off in consistient thickness, so I think the saw is doing its job, I must be doing something wrong....
