Japanes Craftsmen at work

   The YouTube video that is linked here shows Japanese craftsmen using hand planes.   
  
   The most important thing about all of these planes, and our planes too,....sharp blades and proper setup.

   The second most important thing about all these planes and our planes too, is practice.  None of the craftsmen in the video starting working in wood this morning, there are years of training and experience at work, and it is very nice to watch.

   Check out the shavings that those guys get from their planes.  They are everything Rob Cossman talks about.
