I need to make 350lf of tongue and grove in Jatoba (356 of tongue,

Whichever method you choose, consider that control of the stock and
feed rates will have a major effect on the quality of the results,
and the safety to the operator.

A pro shop would likely use a power feeder on something looking a lot
like a shaper.

Keep in mind that jatoba is way up the hardness scale...

That's what I'd use but I suspect OP doesn't have that option unless
this looks like a good (enough) excuse...


My estimate is that this is probably about US$1k in materials cost. And
this is a big project, no matter how you look at it, for a hobby guy.
I'm one of those, for certain.

Do it carefully, Cyrille.
