This guide teaches you how to discern the difference between each style of plane, how to select one that's best for your approach to woodworking, how to setup and maintain each of the planes, and lastly, how to make a variety of handplanes. The author analyzes the six core anatomical elements common to all planes, then shows how these elements work.
