Reed Plane Kits
Several Kit Options to Choose from
Adjuster and yoke
This Kit Includes the Adjuster knob, the fine stud, and one file to fit the yoke. This way, you will get the finest adjustment money can buy with all the slop removed. Using the file to fit the yoke with the fine thread larger adjuster, you will be able to dial in exactly what you want easily. Here is a link to a video showing how to make all the adjustments needed to fit your plane (coming Soon). Also, you can find detailed instructions on fitting it to your plane here https://youtu.be/AS8voV3jmh8
Wedge Kit
The Wedge Kit includes both the 50-degree and the 55-degree wedges and all of their screws and washers. Both wedges are designed to fit Stanleys and can probably fit in most other brands, though we have not been able to test all of them. This wedge will allow you to plane with a higher angle and still use your chipbreaker without having to buy a whole new frog. The installation is fairly simple and can be done in a few minutes. We also include a set of longer screws as every casting is a bit different. and a second set to connect the frog to the wedge. This will give you options so you can choose between easier pushing of the lower angle and the controlled cut of the higher angle.

A bit about REED Planes:
Reed Planes was developed from my frustrations of using Stanley planes and old tired Norris planes. My goal was to create a handplane that would solve the shortcomings of these planes as well as a way for them to be adjustable due to wear over time. I have adapted many of my improvements for replacement parts that can easily modify a Stanley handplane.
