Replace the inaccurate stock height gauge on your portable planer and stop constantly using calipers to check stock thickness! Most digital calipers only read out in decimal measurements, forcing you to do the mental math to convert to fractions. If your stock is measuring .575" and you need 9/16", how much do you need to remove with your next pass through the planer? With the Digital Planer Height Gauge simply lower your planer until the gauge reads .565 - 9/16. It can't get any easier! A unique gauge reads out both decimal and fractional measurements. Fits most portable "lunch box" style planers. Easy to follow installation instructions.

Jet13" Benchtop Planer with Helical Cutterhead - JWP-13BTHH+$799.99
The JET JWP‑13BTHH 13" Portable Thickness Planer pairs a compact benchtop footprint with a true helical cutterhead to deliver smoother surfaces and quieter operation compared to straight‑knife designs. It is built to deliver consistent thickness control while reducing tearout on figured or difficult grain.
The helical cutterhead uses 30 four‑sided carbide inserts arranged in a spiral pattern. Each insert can be rotated to a fresh cutting edge, extending usable life while maintaining cutting quality over time. This design also spreads cutting forces more evenly, which helps lower operating noise and reduce vibration during planing. Feed rate is held at 24.6 FPM to keep stock moving steadily through the cutterhead without forcing the cut.
Thickness adjustment is handled through a top‑mounted crank with a calibrated scale and depth‑of‑cut gauge. One full revolution of the handwheel moves the cutterhead 1/16", allowing controlled, repeatable changes between passes. Integrated infeed and outfeed tables support stock as it enters and exits the planer, helping manage longer boards and minimize handling issues.
The planer runs on standard 120V power and includes an overload protection system to help manage motor load during deeper cuts. A 4" dust port supports connection to a dust collection system rated at 550 CFM, which is strongly recommended for maintaining cutterhead performance and chip evacuation.
Features:
- Helical cutterhead with 30 four‑sided carbide inserts
- Insert rotation extends cutting edge life without re‑setting knives
- 13" maximum planing width with up to 6" thickness capacity
- Controlled 24.6 FPM feed rate for consistent material removal
- Indexed height adjustment with calibrated thickness scale
- Integrated infeed and outfeed tables for stock support
- 120V single‑phase motor with overload protection
- 4" dust port for use with 550 CFM dust collection systems
