Customer Reviews

Do you find that using your plane's adjusting knob is a bit difficult? Well we did and decided to fix that by creating our Plane AdjuSTAR 2.0 adjusting knob to replace the original adjusting knob on most WoodRiver & Luban bench planes.

Our Plane AdjuSTAR 2.0 is larger and much easier to use than the original adjusting knob allowing you to make adjustments to your blade depth setting easily.  Our design makes it easier for you to reach and turn the adjuster with your fingers and easier for you to reach the frog adjustment screw with a screwdriver. We know you will love our Plane AdjuSTAR 2.0.

DETAILS:

  • Made of forged brass.
  • Designed to fit WoodRiver and Luban brand bench planes numbers 5, 5-1/2, 6, 7, and 8.  Requires removal of handle to install (see installation video).
  • WIll Not Fit the WoodRiver or Luban bench planes number 1, 3, 4, 4-1/2 and 62. 
  • Diameter: 1-7/8 inch outside diameter.

Great Upgrade

The star adjuster is a great plane upgrade, perhaps the best. It makes fine tuning blade protrusion easy!

Nice, Very Nice!

I got this and the replacement hex screws for the WR 5 1/2. I didn't use all of the screws, the slotted screw for the chip breaker. I carry a short slotted screwdriver in my apron, finding a hex key seemed like too much work, especially in my shop! Moving the throat is not done that often. The adjustar is so much easier than a knob. Do it! I feel you will not regret replacing the knob, or the screws.

Awesome!

Did not expect that I would be impressed by such a minor addition to a plane. It really has made a large improvement, just wish it had been around 50 yrs ago when I first started using hand planes .
