Having just acquired a few hand planes and spent some time sharpening them, I was eager to put them to use on this project and spend some time getting the hang of using them. It may have worked better had I been able to plane each board prior to glue-up, but I went with gluing first and planing later, and it worked out alright. The one thing I'd do differently would be to align the boards before gluing with as much grain as possible going the same direction, since I had to change direction in different places while planing, although the biggest problem was around the knots in the boards, which is sort of unavoidable.
