    2" x 12" x 12' - 1 pc
    2" x 14" x 8' - 4 pcs
    3" x 3" x 10' - 1 pc

    I don't know.
    I would imagine you would be hard pressed to get a board that would be 14inch in width and this would have to be made up in two or three boards if you could do a tongue and groove joint between the joining surfaces of the boards with a router and use epoxy resin as a glue, this being a filler glue that does not need such firm clamping.

    Hope I'm not trying to teach my Granny how to suck eggs here?

    Btw, I have a Triton Planer thicknesser available that does up to 12 inch board, this is not heavy duty but does a good job if restricted to o.4mm on each pass.
