Good day
The winter hibernation season finished in Poland and it's time to start working.
So, between the "Saw stop" and "Domino", may I share with you, amateurs and poor guys like me without jointer, my method of jointing boards for panel gluing.
With this method, I "shave" 0.004" (0.1mm) every pass (but you can cut more), standing behind the straight edge and using pushers to satisfy the "safety police" but first, myself.
The straight edge must be double the length of the board, the one in the pics is 66" long and I can joint boards of 33" max but, soon I'm going to buy a 118" straight edge that is used for carpeting. I checked a few of them face-to-face and was surprised how straight they are.
They cost here around $30 (waiting for the "bank" permission).
Edit: for the sake of safety, I removed all the pics
