Default New tool idea -- need your opinions! (Hint: one machine instead of a planer AND A jointer)

The Rikon product doesn't do what the original poster said. It won't
plane a flat surface on board, it will only plane a surface parallel to
the other side.

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


Umm Yes it will. It is a jointer on top and a planer underneath.


Ummm -- sorry -- YOU misunderstood. The ORIGINAL proposal (which was
mine), does NOT have a jointer on top and a planer underneath).
