- Can you please provide a more precise reference for this. It sounds
- quite interesting to me.

-
- Woodworking Machines, a Fine Woodworking digest, from Taunton Press.
-
- There is a nice section on the jointer, by Tag Frid.
-
- Also, if you are interested in more information about planers, saws,
- jointers, etc., check out:
-
- Power Saws and Planers, also from Fine Woodworking.
-
- This has a good section on using the jointer. It confirms my belief that
- a high quality tablesaw and rip fence is wasted unless you joint your
- stock first.
