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.

Oops - sorry - now I understand what you meant. I suppose the Rikon would,
indeed, do that.
