For extra long stuff, you'll be glad you can roll up that overhead door.
I was born (and live near again) the home town of Oliver, so I'm thinking I need a nice sized Oliver planer.

The Oliver 18" is a very compact machine compared to the Powermatic 18. There may be single phase models out there, but I don't know of any since it is a direct motor drive machine. The next size up by Oliver is a 24" and that's probably too heavy for casters. A pallet jack for that one.
