No, it works good. The wavy was the face of the board. It was 120 yr old barn wood. I used this method until I bought a planer about 2 years ago. It's slow as it can only take off about 1/16th per pass. If your confident with a table saw there is another method using a long level and pushing the board with it riding next to a level. It works. If you decide to do that don't start with a long board, work up to a longer piece of wood as you feel more comfortable.
How do you keep the jig firmly attached to the saw table? I ask because I saw it wiggling a bit when you first pressed the wood against it and that seems a bit worrying safety wise.
Hey, thanks for asking. I guess I should have made a "build" video, but I just build a box around my table saw fence that was clamped and screwed together while clamped. I added closed ends to it to make it fully enclose the fence. It's Friction fit over the fence. It's so tight that I have to pull hard to remove it. I used the saw blade raised to it full height to cut out a 1/8 indentation, then lower the blade slightly while jointing. The blade almost makes no contact with the fence. I hope this description makes sense.
@@crimsonwoodworking9609it's been a while...please tell me you made a video with plans for this genius hack?! I'm trying to start a woodworking business and this will save me money...thanks!
it doesn't look like it worked very well as the edge is wavy and not straight, can you confirm?

@@crimsonwoodworking9609 yeah i've done that method before, i used an 8 ft straight board, and yeah, you're correct it wasn't easy
