HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE PLANER SLED FOR FLATTENING WIDE BOARDS
From instructables.com Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
Cut the Sled to Fit Your Planer Width. For this project I like to use 3/4" MDF or Melamine because its perfectly flat and will slide easily across your planer bed.
Cut and Attach the Cleat. The cleat will be attached to the back side of the sled and will prevent your board from being pushed backwards as it goes through the planer.
How to Secure a Board to Be Flattened. Lay the board, that needs to be flattened, directly on the sled and up against the cleat. Next you want to push down on the board to determine where the gaps are between the sled and board.
Run the Sled Through the Planer to Flatten Your Board. Insert the sled into the planer, adjust the planer to make shallow cuts, and run the sled with the board through the planer.

Cutting Material. First of all why do we need a sled? The reason you should use a sled is because if you just put a twisted, bowed, or cupped board through a planer it will follow the twist or bow and all you will end up with is a thinner board with the same defects.
Cutting the Stop Block. Once I had it ripped to width I grabbed my cross cut sled and trimmed off a piece about 2" that I will attach to the top of the sled.
Attaching the Stop Block. Glue, clamp and screw this piece on to one of the ends. It doesn't have to be perfectly flush but I try to get it close.
Leveling and Attaching the Board or Slab. So I had this slab of awesome spalted pecan but it was pretty warped and using this sled was the perfect way to flatten it out.
Face Jointing the Board or Slab. When feeding the sled and slab through the planer make sure you feed it with the attached stop block in front. Take light passes at first.
