Norris A22 Plane Review By: I.Ball
Category: Old Infill Planes
Manufacturer: Norris
Plane Type: Infill
Model No: A22
The Norris steel adjustable shoulder reabte plane model number A22.
The Norris A22 plane is an adjustable version of the
Norris 22 shoulder plane.
The A22 looks exactly the same as the 22 with the difference in appearance
being the A22 has a brass knurled nut on top of the infill.
This brass nut is used to control the blade fine adjustment mechanism.
Turning the brass nut moves the blade downwards and upwards to easily
and accurately set the depth of cut. Note: the wedge should be loosened
before making adjustments to avoid damage.
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 A22 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.

"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."
