Hello everyone. I've been lurking here for awhile as I've started down the slippery slope. It's difficult to get the depth of information on many hand tools on this side of the pond so I've enjoyed and used the information from your forum. If you've specifically addressed this before I apologize but I couldn't find it. I've used the method of stopped cuts on each end that David C advocates for jointing and found it effective. It seems intuitive that this approach will only work for shorter boards, perhaps twice the length of the plane. If this is true, what is this length? Are there other equally effective approaches to jointing longer boards? Thanks for all of your help
