I am new to this forum. Looking for some advice. I have intentions of building a cedar strip boat. I recently got plans off the internet from Sandy Point Boatworks for their 20' freighter canoe. I do a little woodworking, but I didn't own a planer or a jointer so I bought the 10" Jet combo machine mentioned in the title. I just got it unpacked and I don't even have it completely assembled yet. I was hoping that some of you guys have some experience with this machine. The reviews online are mixed. I probably should have spent the extra for two machines, but budget is too tight. I'm not making fine furniture. I should be able to get some 3/4 by 3/8 strips out of it. I would appreciate any input about this machine.....

Thanks in advance,
Ken
