Safety tips:
- Always wear eye protection when working with wood and power tools.
- Slats should be placed no more than 2-1/4" apart so the baby won't get his head stuck.
First Johnson passes the wood through the joiner to give it a true edge (figure G). Then he takes it to the planer (figure H), which will give the board a smooth surface. (Note: Always check the grain direction before you run wood through a planer so you're not chipping the wood but simply planing it.) He keeps the wood as thick as possible since once he cuts it to width on the table saw, he will be splitting it in half widthwise to make two thinner pieces.
Expert tip: With both planer and joiner, you may have to run the wood through twice.
