Out rust hunting yesterday I found a Stanley 4 1/2 C plane for 20$. It is either a type 11 or 12 as far as I can tell. I think its was a good find. It had a few problems like a cracked knob, no lateral adjuster and a missing screw for the front of the tote. The blade had some big nicks in it and someone had used the top as an adjuster with a hammer so its flat but has edges folded over a bit.

The question is how do I find an adjuster and which type? Could I use the one on this Franken plane (no idea what brand it is). How hard is it to replace and install?
