The Rikon product doesn't do what the original poster said. It won't plane

Wasn't the original proposal for a tool that would actually flatten one
side before planing the other?


Yep (says the Original Poster) -- the tool I'm working on WILL do both.

(Why do you say the Rikon won't? It looks like a jointer on top / planer
underneath combo.....)
