Re: [afoaf] Handshaped Paulownia Handplane Test

They aren't hard. This is the first thing I've ever shaped and did it in an afternoon. I think the water resistant properties of paulownia help though because I only had to oil it. This is only my first one so I can't compare, but my feeling is the fish tail is purely aesthetic.
