The Chinese handplane is different from it's European counter part is the way that it is held. The Chinese plane can be used in many hand positions; such as one handed, pushed, pulled, w/ or w/o the hand.

The next planned Chinese woodworking project is a frame saw. The Chinese frame saw is very similar to the German (European) framesaw in the way they look. There are subttle differences in the design that makes their use very different.

Thank you for watching, I hope you enjoy it. Let me know if you have any questions.
