Mike, It may be more helpful to try to describe what has been 'throwing you off with your jointer plane'. You would be surprised at how many odd behaviors a plane can commit.
It might even be good to start a new post.
It also helps to have your location known. Heck, if you are in the are of the Pacific Northwest you would be welcome to help. If you live in another area there are also other members who have always been willing to help others at getting their plane in working order.
