Dear Jan and the Group,

Thank you for mentioning this point. It is something you do
immediately after marking the MEASURED center of the board... and
which I completely forgot to mention. I use a large screw-driver as
my 'balance beam,' and a pencil mark on the EDGE of the board to
indicate the HEAVY end.

There is also another thing you must consider when the laminae are
THICK, as in 3/4" you must also take the grain into account, flipping
the boards so that you get face-to-face or back-to-back. What you
DON'T want is face-to-back on any of you boards. Of course, if you
can plane them down to about 3/8" the 'warp factor' is much less.
