Hand Tool

Is there such a tool / hand planer for knocking off edges. Doing some work at the cottage that requires some bull nosing on wood edging. Router won't work as no electricity or generator.



Thanks



Probably one of these would work

You're just trying to round over the edges of 3/4" boards with an approx. 3/8" radius curve? A moulding plane would do it, but them are hard to find. It might be easier to just make one. Or use a spokeshave, if there's not that much of it.

Moulding plane would be my first choice. You might look at these:

You didn't specify what size roundover you were looking for (knocking off edges and bullnose are extremes of each other).

if you just want to knock off the edges this is your tool and reasonable at that:

Thanks Bill. Thats the one - and the price is right.
