G'day Fellas
Can I please have your advice about whether to buy a planer, a thicknesser, or a combination machine. Which is the most useful? Would changing a combination planer/thicknesser drive...

Sorry - I've just re-read my last post and it was uncharacteristically negative. I sincerely apologise if I've upset anyone. Now that I've retired I will have to consign my cynicism to where it...
