Thanks Jeril. What you say makes sense. I have always jointed one face and one edge but I can see why it's a good idea to joint one face and plane the other.
good tip. I've often thought about being locked in to possibly jointing the narrow edge going against the grain with only having one face flattened. Your method gets rid of that and allows you to joint with the grain. I can see this as something I'll incorporate into my workflow once I get my new shop built. As it is now in my shop I'll give it a try but I doubt Ill stick with it since I have to move my Dust collection from machine to machine. Once I have proper dust collection lines set up this will be a no brainer!
