I have a new Ridgid 13" planner...not having used one before...I have a question. Can I "gang plane" the edge of a number of identical boards on the planner ? I have about 200 42"L x 3/4"W x 3"H soft wood (Alder) slats that I need to edge plane/joint before I glue them together in 24" wide panels.
They have been pre-cut on a good table saw and are prretty uniform in width
Is it safe to plane the edge of more than one board at a time...and are planners used for this type of operation?
Thanks, TR
