I have a 13" Dewalt planer - we all know what a planer will do, make a bowed board thinner and still bowed.
I want to start making cutting boards - will a jointer help me get a flat edge on my boards to help in my gluing up. I guess I already know that the answer is yes, now I show my ignorance.
I have a chance to buy a 6 1/8 inch Ryobi Planer-Jointer model #JP155 for $100.00 - It appears to be in excellent shape with very little use.
I have attempted to run several pieces through that were 3/4 to 1 1/2 thick and ended up with a wedge shape
board.
I have never used a jointer before - is it me or the jointer.
Thank you
