After viewing Chris Schwartz's videos, I am seriously considering adding a jointer plane (I have two jack planes and several smothers). However, I am concerned about the size and weight of a jointer. I am small (5'2") and getting rather old, so I'm not as strong as I used to be.
My choices are the LN and the Veritas. I am leaning toward the Veritas BU.
I would appreciate comments and insights.
