In this video on making a wood plane, Bill Anderson specifically shows how to make a traditional jointer plane using woodworking hand tools. A jointer plane is a wood plane that is one of three planes called a bench plane. The three main bench planes are a jointer plane, a smoothing plane, and a jack plane. These three hand planes are called a bench plane because they are used so often that they are almost always sitting on the workbench.
