I do have a very nice belt sander that would make quick work of it.

I have confirmed that the plywood side of the cabinet that I need to thin is 17.5mm, so 11/16".

I'd forgotten about my belt sander and was thinking about how much time it was going to take with my little cordless ¼ sheet palm sander. Duh, corded monster belt sander FTW!
