Thanks for the info folks.

Think I got it.

The jointer is doing exactly what it is supposed to do - make one edge
and one face flat.

The other edge has to be ripped, and the other face has to be planed.

The task at hand only needs the two edges flat; the faces are a don't
care. The jointer and itty TS are enough for now.

When the model airplane building budget allows I may get a power
planer, but right now landing gear retract systems eat bucks to the
tune of $650 a set, and I've got three giant models waiting for the
building table.

BTW - I once read 'Seven rules for squaring a board'. Don't recall if
it was here or in the Yahoo lair. Anyone seen that little tid-bit ?
