Well, they already are driven on the board surfaces with rollers like a surface planer, because my machine will actually attach to a surface planer. The requirement from customer was that operator feeds unprocessed board in and then takes a board, which is planed down to certain thickness by planer and have both edges processed so that they can be joined together. Using 2 separate jointers and then feed boards through them automatically - that is just too much of mechanics, too expensive to produce. Current 3D model looks like this: http://picpaste.com/model-XeiYl0y4.PNG I do not really agree that cutting both sides at once is more complicated. Having 2 jointers and then feeder system for both of them and also some mechanism, which would rebase boards from one side to another between jointers - that seems too complicated for me.
