I did a search on planing end grain cutting boards on a planer. There are equal amounts of folks doing it and against it.
I found a good video that shows the safe way to plane end grain cutting boards on a thickness planer.
This fellow has done thousands of them and stresses certain procedures to do it safely.
If you are going to use this technique,I recommend that you watch this U-Tube video and follow the safe techniques shown for your own safety.
It is 12 min long but worth saving your machine and yourself.
Don't Hurry and work patiently,
Herb
