		 i have a friend who uses a hand plane to "make dowels" 
he is from a different style of turners. he uses a lot of green wood and turns things roughed in oversized to allow for drying then turns the finished item later. first i had heard of this. he also saves the green shavings to keep the oversized items in to do the drying process. 
he used to make bowls and such. quite a craftsman.
