Points well made. The Fillister plane in the previous picture actually comes with a fence which I removed to make it easier to handle. In terms of flattening out curves... you're really only removing material from the inside edge of the strip (and very little material at that). Also, I let the front of the plane ride the strip instead of the back in order to minimize that flattening effect. So I didn't notice any flattening.

Here's another rabbet plan. This one is harder to hold onto around the forms. It's a great multi purpose low-angle plane; it's a rabbet/bullnose/chisel combo. I use it all the time.
