Customer Reviews
This is the second item purchased from this company. Quality is exceptional. The planer works very well and gives a glass like finish. If I was being critical and it is a minor point the height adjustment mechanism could be smoother but that's more of a tactile issue not functional.
Delivery was very quick and customer service have always answered questions very promptly.
Would definitely not hesitate in buying anything from this company in the future.
Hi,Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are thrilled to hear that you are satisfied with your purchase of the FB131H Helical Head Planer. We take great pride in providing exceptional quality products and we are glad to know that it has met your expectations.

When my Delta thickness planer with 3 long blades gave up the ghost, the FindBuyTool Planer with the Helical head was a no brainer!
Similar in style to the Delta Planer, it has many more features than the Delta, the first of which is a gauge showing the plane depth in addition to the rule used to set the machine's height AND it came with the helical cutter head and several extra blade replacements at a price far less then what it would cost to buy anew planer and then get the upgraded helical head. The head also came pre-installed so the warranty wasn't voided by putting in an aftermarket helical head!
The machine, otherwise, functions exactly as you would expect a planer with a helical head to work and I have no complaints.
This purchase makes perfect sense for my shop.
Hi,Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for our FB131H 13' Planer. We are glad to hear that our product was a no-brainer replacement for your old Delta planer with 3 long blades. We take pride in offering a high-quality planer with additional features such as a gauge for plane depth and an included helical cutter head at a competitive price. We hope it continues to serve you well in your shop.Have a great ady.
Best helical head planer for the price hands down. Only one thing negative about it, the repeat cut stop may not stop you from cranking down farther if you're not paying attention. That said this machine gives unbelievably smooth cuts with next to no effort. It's actually quieter when planning than running at an idle. It has run more than 2000 board feet of knotty alder for me and is just as smooth as when I began. The 700 dollar price tag is amazing considering a replacement helical head is about 360, for a 400 dollar planer and you have to install it or pay someone to do it. I highly recommend this planer, you won't regret this purchase.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for our FindBuyTool Machorool® FB131H 13' Benchtop Wood Thickness Planer. We are so glad to hear that you are satisfied with your purchase and find it to be the best planer for the money. Thank you for your support and happy woodworking!
Ran 40 4”widex4’ long cherry boards through it and all boards were the same thickness when using the thickness stop. Pleased overall. I didn’t know you have to use a vacuum system to clear chips though. They build up and bind without it.
Thank you for your feedback on our FindBuyTool Machorool® FB131H Benchtop Wood Thickness Planer. We're glad to hear that you found it to be a good value for the money and that it provided consistent results for your cherry boards. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the chip buildup - as you mentioned, using a vacuum system is recommended to prevent this issue. We appreciate your business and hope you continue to enjoy using our product. Happy woodworking!
This planar is quieter than my dust collection system. It leaves a finish that is as good as 180 to 220 grit sandpaper, so you could use it directly for many applications. I find adjusting the input table to be difficult and I would like to see a way to bolt on longet infeed and ouput support.
Hi,Thank you for your feedback on our planer. We are glad to hear that you have had a positive experience with our product and that it has helped with your sanding process. We appreciate your suggestion for improvement and will definitely take it into consideration for future designs. Thank you for choosing our product and happy woodworking!
