I also thickness the maple sides for #8.
The sequence of thicknessing is scrub plane, my wooden plane and finally high angle plane.
After removing the initial layer of maple I can see the beautiful flame figure.
Maple does not really likes to be planed, I have to plane at an angle to avoid tearout.
But the HA plane is really doing a good job of levelling it smooth without tearout.
Straightening one side of the sides for the top facing edge.
Began planing. You can see the flame figure after removing the initial oxidized layer.
Sequence of planing Scrub -> Wooden Smoother -> HA plane
Done!

The sides are saw to size.
Some binding can be made from the cut-off of the sides.
Cutting off some excess from the sides. It can be used as bindings.
