get by with a sander instead of a planer?
A vertical sander?
A horizontal drum sander performs a similar function as a planer.
Before any one can advise you on which to get you must first tell us why
you want either one.
I meant horizontal.
Main reason is to even out the "plane" after gluing boards together for
a larger piece.
