Tom, After viewing the photos, I see where there is another problem. You have the Jig set up, so that the key goes into the cutter Left of center, of the cutter. You are not getting efficient use of the Planer in this way. You should be feeding Right of the center of the Planer. Same principle as Routing. So, when you make the next one mount everything about 1" to 1 1/2" to the right. Either that or just put a spacer on the fence for a test.
