I did some tuning up last night after getting all the available
information I could find. Turns out the beds were coplanar, but the
bottom edge of the fence, which I was using as an initial judgement was
not. Once I put a better straight edge on it (my aluminum level), they
were perfect. So after adjusting the knife height and working on my
technique, all came out well.

Thanks everyone.

I have a Delta 6" Deluxe Jointer (JT360) and continuously get tapered

this jointer had problems 15 years ago and still seems to have them. mine had a
twisted and warped fence got a replacement and it was only warped. the infeed
bed twisted too.
