I've been reading the archives searching for information on resawing
as I've never owned, but am about to buy, a bandsaw. I am interested
in the group's opinion of buying a bandsaw with resaw capacity greater
than the width of my jointer. (6") If the board I am resawing is
wider than my 6" jointer, can I use a slave board on my planer and
make a face good enough to put against my resaw fence? Any and all
opinions appreciated.
