Hi Mark.
I'm useless with a hand plane, but I do have a #7 Lie-Nielsen. I hesitated to even consider using it because:
? I'm useless with a hand plane ? Whenever I read about using a jointer plane I see comments about custom large-radius irons or eased corners, etc.
Is the general idea to use the hand place to flatten and then machine to thickness and to remove plane marks?
Thanks!
