Episode #17 is about squaring lumber and, I believe, may answer all your questions about using the jointer. If all works as it should all you have to do is open the PDF index, click on the episode you want to watch and it should launch your browser to the episode you want to watch. Hope it works for you.
Nice link - thank you very much! It'll be fun to watch a couple waiting for the snow to stop before I have to clear the driveway.

Thanks for that information. I know I've seen some videos on squaring lumber on the jointer then planer but this really explains it even further.
3 hours of fighting that darn board later...it's square. Ended up using my hand plane to get that last 1/16 that for some reason was really a bugger. The oak I was using was 1.5 inches thick and really challenged me. I've never worked with that thick a piece of lumber and what a learning experience!!
