Showerthought: Letting wood sit in my shop before use fixed my warp issues
I used to take hardwood from the store and work on it immediately. My cabinets would often twist or cup after I put them together, which drove me nuts. An old timer at the lumberyard said to let the wood get used to my shop's air. So I changed my routine and now leave it stacked with spacers for about a week. The improvement is huge. My recent cherry cabinet doors stayed perfectly flat once installed. I don't have to fix gaps or sand out bends anymore. This small shift means I think ahead, but my work is way more reliable now.
