In general which would you use to cut a piece down to proper thickness assuming the piece is already
1) planed and shaped properly 2) only a smidgen too largeI have a table leg that is about 3/16th too large, so my first inclination would be to run it over the jointer a couple times to get it down to size. My reasoning is that the jointer has a superior table and I can control the feed much better than my benchtop planer. Also my jointer will shave 1/32 reliably whereas my planer is around 3/32. But would it be a better option to invest in a better planer and use that or is a jointer perfectly acceptable for shaving down wood?
