Hi Frank,

What time era are you thinking of for an answer to this question?

I see Rob Cosman very successfully using a #6 plane on its side with a
shooting board and wish I hadn't sold off so many planes when I moved cross
country.  I've always assumed that using a standard plane this was what the
old timers did as well.

One of these days I'd like to try out one of the infill miter planes that
look so appealing (perhaps getting a St. James Bay casting set). I
definitely enjoy using my Nonesuch Toolwerks 151, of course.
