I do not know how practical it is but I have used this process on a small table top myself with some success. The trick is setting up a flat table with even rails and a sled large enough that will not sag in the middle. Also be careful of grain direction. If you go the wrong way it can lift the grain in some spots. Making final sanding more difficult. If you can, do a test and when you do the final project go slow and steady. You will not get a perfectly flat surface as you would with a planer/jointer but then I revel in the small imperfections. They are what make it hand made.
