Learn to use a jack plane before that monster. but a cheap jointer for 350 bucks. It run circles around the Jointer plane. A good jointer plane runs you 150 plus, maybe more? There are so many way to get around that clumsy thing. I love using real fine hand tools, only when I have all day to cut one board and have nothing to do for the next 36 hours. One day I will get back to it. I still use a hand scraper when I actually do work in the shop or in the field.
