That's a lot of oak. You'll probably want a surface planer too, or a planer thicknesser combo machine. A standalone thicknesser isnt really designed to flatten boards, if you put them on bowed/twisted/cupped they come out the same. I flattened mine using a sled jig trick, but it's slow and a pita (but does work)

Nice! I was casually looking at a thicknesser/planer the other day. I've brought probably 2 tons of rough-hewn oak with me to every house I've lived in for nearly ten years and really need to do something with it.
