Manufacturer: Granby
Plane Type: Bullnose
Model No:
The Granby bullnose plane is a little brass bull-nose plane with certain
parts finished with a red finish.
The plane is approximately 97mm (just short of 4 inches) in length and
28mm (1 1/8" in width).
The Granby brass bullnose plane is very similar in design to the
Record 076 Plane.
Like the Record 076 bullnose plane, the Granby brass plane also has
a 29mm (1 1/8 inch) wide shouldered cutter which which spans the full
width of the plane.
The plane blade is positioned with the bevel-side of the blade facing
upwards.
The front of the plane has a curved nose with a window to the cutting
area.
Blade adjustments are carried out by loosening the lever cap and
adjusting the blade by moving the blade into position by hand (opposed
to certain bullnose planes which have fine adjustment mechanisms).
The lever cap is secured by turning the knurled wheel nut underneath
the top portion of the lever cap.
The Granby bull-nose plane can be used to reach close into corners including
being used left or right handed. The plane can be laid perfectly
flat and used on either of its sides to trim rebates.

"Just stumbled across your website and an absolute treasure trove of information.
I was recently given an old Stanley 110 block plane and wanted to know more about it.
Your website told me everything I needed to know.
But there is so much more to read. I forsee me spending a lot of time just reading
page after page. I can appreciate how much time this will have taken to put together.
I just wanted to let you know that your hard work is appreciated."
