Jointers

Jointers (another type of hand plane, in this case you would use two hands)

These are very long planes used to flatten and joint the faces of boards, they range from 18" to 30". (45 to 75 cm)

They are used to level wide surfaces such as glued up stock that are uneven.

They are not used much these days as they have been replaced by affordable Jointer/Planers which range from 10 to 16" wide and surface one side at a time.
