For me wood is just an easier medium than metal, but I took wood shop classes in high school along with auto shop, and have done woodworking and carpentry for 30 years. Metal shop on the other hand I didn't take! If I am worried about a precise cut on wood, I simply cut a little long and then sand to where it needs to be. Welding I end up making a mess! I imagine on a plane regauadless of the medium your working in, precission is going to be vitaly important for structural integrity! I never meant to imply rebuilding a wooden plane was easy, nor do I believe did I say that, just commented that I prefer wood to metal.
