For the Carpenters.... How do I plane a rough 42" slab

I have a friend who has started to collect large slabs of logs from an arborist. up to 45" x 6' x 3" and he is trying to figure out how to plane them down to a relatively smooth finish.

He's interested in making or refurbishing a commercial style machine for the process. Are there other technologies for metal working that could be used to create a flat smooth surface.

Anyone got suggestions or solution? A $50,000.00 machine is not his kinda solution.

Thanks
