I have just milled up some stock for a project and after letting it sit for a short while a couple of pieces are now slightly bowed. They are still oversize but are at nominal thickness maybe 1/16 over. I was going to cut them to exact sizes and then run them through the planer to final thickness.
I currently have them all clamped between 2 thick cauls and will see what the look like tomorrow but I am not sure my prayers will be answered.
I seem to recall there is a technique involving wetting down one side and then clamping. Does anybody know the best way to do this?
What might happen if I wet all the surfaces and then reclamped in the cauls?
Help please
