Some combination machines run all of their functions from a single motor; others may use more than one. Cutter heads are often shared: for example a jointer-thicknesser may use the same cutter head for both functions. The machines rely upon well thought-out designs which allow the user to switch from one function to another easily.
Jointer knives are ground until they are all the same length prior to sharpening. The edges of a card scraper are jointed by running the edge over a file or a sharpening stone prior to using a burnisher to turn the burr.
