I would install a 15 or 20 hp Rotary phase converter and find you a big old hunk of iron 24" planer, as an added bonus you can get a big ol jointer, table saw, 5 head tenoner, edge sander, 36" bandsaw, etc.
All can be had for cheap compared to shiny tin boxes or the cost of a new northfield.
Look for Yates, Oliver, Northfield, Tannewitz, American, Greenlee, Oakley, Crescent, SCMI, Martin, SCM, etc.
I have 3 24" planers, a Yates American, American 1 1/2, and a Bentel. All there combined cost me 800 bucks.
I have lots of big stuff.
