Hi Paul, this is what I was getting at - not implying that you needed yet another plane, just judging what type of work you do based on the planes in you 'arsenal'.

The second type of wood I use is kiln-dried pine from big box.
Do I even need a scrub plane? From what I can tell it's mostly used for really rough wood to prepare it for a jack and then a jointer. Or skip the jack and go straight to the jointer.
Remember, my background is building stuff out of balsa where you cut and sand and occasionally use a razor plane.
Thanks for all the help!
