Norris 22 Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Infill Planes
Manufacturer: Norris
Plane Type: Infill
Model No: 22
The Norris steel shoulder rebate plane model number 22.
The Norris 22 has a malleable iron body, rosewood infill, rosewood
wedge and shouldered plane blade.
The Norris 22 plane is another of the Norris shoulder plane range.
The number 22 is quite similar to the Norris 7 with the main differences
being the shape and the material.
The Norris 22 was produced in two different sizes:
- 1 1/4" (32mm)
- 1 1/2" (38mm)
The wedge is used to firmly secure the plane blade in the desired
position.
A different shaped wedge or a wedge made from a different material
indicates the wedge has been replaced. If the wedge is a different
colour to the infill then this may mean the wedge has been replaced
also.
The Norris 22 plane blade cutting section spans the full width of the
plane with the bevel edge side facing upwards.
The plane can be used left or right handed and can be laid perfectly
flat and used on either of its sides to trim rebates, shoulder lines
and tenons.
There is an adjustable Norris 22 shoulder plane with a brass knurled
nut on top of the infill. The adjustable model is the
Norris A22 plane.

"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."
