I made this 10" bowl/dish to hold an iced tea pitcher. It is wormy red oak; a total of 2.5" thick. The sides are 1.5" high and about 0.3" thick.
A little subtraction gives the base as 1" thick. I want to reduce it to 0.5".
I could run it through the drum sander, but that will take forever. I thought about setting a 1/2" router bit 1/2" up on the router table and running it through randomly a dozen times; I figure that will reduce the amount of wood to be sanded by half. Safe? Reasonable?
Any other ideas?

How do I reduce the thickness a half inch?
