MiNK, if you can stump up the extra for a copy of David Charlesworth's second DVD - Hand Planing I think you'd find the stuff on jointing an edge helpful. DC uses a cambered blade, as do I and Jeff Gorman, but you might want to opt for a square edge and clamp a simple jointer fence on the plane to make life easier. Then you just have to worry about getting it straight, which is where DC's advice is very helpful IMO.

Interesting the different techniques employed for jointing, and all to good effect. A few pics of the balancing act I like to do here, for the terminally bored.

Cheers, Alf
