If you are like many woodworkers, you own handplanes but never learned how to use them to their best advantage. In this video, teacher and plane expert Mario Rodriguez shows the basics of using planes and how four basic planes -- the jointer, the smooth plane, the shoulder plane, and the block plane -- can change the way you do woodworking.

In this video you'll learn how to:

• correct stance and planing technique
• joint an edge
• adjust drawers for a perfect fit

• surface stock with planes

This video is an excellent introduction to the usage of hand planes.
You will learn how to tune and use a smoothing plane, jointer plane, block plane and shoulder plane.
A good chunk of the video shows you how to tune a stanley N4 before you use it for the first time. This is one of those thing that would be hard to figure out on your own.
