Default planer or bandsaw

Thanks for all the opinions. I did resaw on the table saw. NOT NOT FUN. All
the time I thought "there are so many ways this could go terribly wrong."
Nothing happened but I WON"T do that again. JUST PLAIN SCARY. Since the bed
has a few thinner (3/4") pieces I decided to make a router sled to get them
down to size. I got a jointer early on - in retrospect I would've been
better off with a band saw. My good ol' gal said I could get both but a
vehicle will have to live outside all year and I hate scraping in the
morning. Maybe it's time to put a 220 outlet in the garage. Hmmm - that
opens up a whole new arena of tool possibilities
