: The only reason I have a thickness planer is that I often purchase
: rough lumber and the boards usually vary quite a bit in
: thickness. The planer does a great quick job (though very loud
: and dusty) of bringing all the boards to the same thickness with
: smooth faces.

I do the same. I depend on careful setup, in-feed and out-feed tables and a narrow kerf Frued blade on the tablesaw to make consistant strips. So far that's working well.
