Great Question

I think that one misconception about woodworking is that it REQUIRES a lot of expensive specialty planes and other tools. I just have a stanley #4 that I use for everything and a clifton 410 shoulder plane for fitting tenons.

As far as surface prep, I plane whatever I can. If there's tear-out or the grain is crazy, I scrape. After planing or scraping, I sand everything by hand to "unify" the surface, so there are no visible inconsistencies. The better the surface looks after planing, the less sanding I do.
