: Is there any way to tell which direction the plank is gonna warp before you
: rip it? If so ... hey ... maybe problem solved! I could just cut in the
: direction that causes the plank to open up the kerf.

It's also very important to make sure your outfeed table does not feed the board to the left or right. A slight angle of the rollers horizontal or veritcal can cause a lot of problems at the blade, especially the last few feet of the board..
