Very nice. I wish I caught this live. I am an advocate of hand planes in the shop I work at. Being a contrary I'll stick up for abrasives here. I would not be just using an orbital sander if I were in an abrasive vs plane shoot out. An edge sander or a belt sander set up like an edge sander would make quick work of those legs. And for the top, a wide belt sander or stroke sander would be super fast. I know it wouldn't make sense to pit those big machines against the planes in this setting. But, given enough big belts on large machines abrasives rule.
