Profiles on longitudinal narrow faces and board edges are mostly pre-worked by means of special planes. Profiles, which are pre-moulded by woodworking machines, must be refitted or smoothed by special planes.
Simple chamfers on workpieces are worked by means of the double plane and the adjustable iron fore plane.
Tongues and rabbets are worked by means of the rabbet plane. If rabbets are worked manually, a straight, square strip (straightedge) must be mounted onto the workpiece as gauge for the accurate- to-size guidance of the rabbet plane.
If the workpieces are profiled across to the direction of the grains, the plane is moved in the same way as for planing of end-grained narrow faces.
