Hello Group, So I can get free discarded pallets and crates from my job. A lot of these crates come from china and somtimes the wood looks like it is from some nice type of wood (no idea what type). The wood of the crates is about 3/8" X 3" wide very roughly cut. My question is: is it worth buying a low end thickness planer to smooth that wood to about 1/4" of so? Of course I will have to spend time outside of the work hours to dismantle these pallets and creates. The only planer I have used was a Sears low end one and not a thickness planer. If you think this is worth doing, my next question would be what type of planer? Thank you all
