The top is going to be about 2 1/2" thick end grain.

I have a low angle block plane; but, no bench planes. The last time tried planing end grain, I kept tearing out the edges, no matter how much I rounded them.

Hello:
I'm a real newbie and I need to flatten/level a large butcher block table top (30" by 60") for my wife's Christmas present. Is there any way to do this with a Mk V?

I recently bought a jig saw (model 505644) without mounting posts / tubes. Is it possible to buy or made replacements?

Thanks,
