I have a related question.
All of these jigs require uniform stock as input (square width and thickness). One good edge is easy with a plane or small jointer. Other good edge is easy with a table saw. It is the faces, especially wide pine boards that are my problem.
Do I buy a planer, a planer jointer combo, a planer molder combo???
And, what kind of blade life can I expect from a small planer???
