Pretty cool! We got a tablesaw second hand, Money for a planer is not there yet. I have used a router jig to make some planks for my coat hanger rack, but that is not quite the same as a thicknesserTook me about 5 years to finally get one.. and yes I can now say I fully agree, it's a lifesaver..

You'll find my build-story on it as well. Hector, who developed the format table saw is a fantastic man who's helped me throughout the process of building it.
That saw is a real workhorse
