I stumbled upon a older Craftsman Jointer/Planer model #113232212. It does need a little TLC but is overall in good shape but does need a couple of parts. I have found some of the parts and part numbers on sears parts direct looking at the diagrams as I don't have the owners manual. I have noticed a couple of parts are no longer available and they are charging $16.24 for the manual.
The cutter guard, part no. 67009, is not available and I would like to find an acceptable replacement. This is not the blade guard but sits behind the fence over the belt and used to reinforce the squareness of the fence. If anyone has this plane sitting around I would appreciate the dimensions of this piece so I can craft one myself or being pointed in the right direction.
The other issue I need to address on the jointer is the knives. They could use a good sharpening but in the interim, I need to learn how to set them to square as they are skewed. Again, the owners manual would help but I welcome any advice.
Thanks for looking and I appreciate your assistance.
