This morning i read a post about someone using there planer as a joiner. I am getting ready to buy my 1rst planer. Dewalt dw735. Anyways they were talking about using a jig to make it work. Does anyone have a pic of this jig. Also how thin of a piece can you plane. I am talking about 1/16-3/16. Is that possible without a jig or something. I have never used a planer before. The only thing i am worried about is not using the planer enough. I am only a hobbiest who has alot of things to build on his to-do list. How often do you hobbiest use you 13" planer? Do you think i should not buy a 13" and save up to buy something bigger. I am a little worried about how often i am going to use it becuase i usually are building something bigger than 13". Thanks Josh
