Chuck,
Show us some pictures when you get a chance.

No matter what you use, you are either going to load up the sanding disks and belts, or dull your planer blades and router bits. I would probably go the route of using a jig and a router to level it, and then come back and do the final sanding with a Micro Mesh sanding pads..Router bits are relatively inexpensive.
Make sure to wear a respirator.
Good Luck.

I tried a belt sander but it loads up real quickly. Will the resin dull my planer knives if I send it through the planer? I have a drum sander but if the belt sander loaded up, wouldn’t the drum sander? I thought about putting it back in the form and use a router to level. The top wasn’t totally level but I could use wedges to level, then route. The underside of the top has a good 1/8” to 3/16” of resin and I’d like to take that down to the wood. One YouTube video said they liked Micro Mesh sanding pads because they are porous and vacuum easily but that would be a lot of sanding to remove 1/8” or more.   Advice? Thanks!  Chuck  _______________________________________________
