Traditional dovetailed infill planes

The A31 Thumb Infill Plane.


A31 Thumb Infill plane. The original Norris A31 was a gunmetal casting and, along with my dovetailed version, has become extremely popular.

As with all my infill planes it has a Norris style adjuster.

The plane is beautiful to use and much used by instrument makers. Those that have used this plane will not change it for anything else.

Words cannot do this plane justice and it has found favour with many groups of woodworkers. It is a truly much loved and coveted plane. I am looking forward to remaking this plane.
