THREE SMALL JAPANESE PLANES, from Lee Valley Tools, are well-suited to a variety of detailed shaping tasks, from making musical instruments and models to sculpting and building furniture — particularly moldings and chair seats, according to the company. Of traditional construction, their mouths are set well back in the white oak bodies and give fine cone control on the pull stroke. They also feature self-wedging laminated steel blades, honed and ready for use. The round plane measures 3-3/4" and has a 3/4" blade. The compass planes are 3-1/2" long and have 5/8" blades. The Mini Compass Plane is priced at $32.50; the Mini Round Plane and Mini Convex Compass Plane sell for $34.50 each. Contact: Lee Valley Tools Ltd., 814 Ogdensberg, NY 13669. Tel: 13669-2205.

t ZIRCON’S i20 ONESTEP STUDSENSOR features Center-Vision technology, which provides the means to locate the center of the stud — rather than the edges — with just one pass, according to the company. The OneStep locates wood and metal studs up to 3/4" deep. A LED display alerts users to each stud at its center. Zircon’s SpotLite pointing system and audio signal provide an additional alert at the center point so it can’t be missed. The Zircon i20 OneStep is expected to retail for about $20.
