I recently bought couple of Vertias "custom" 4-1/2 & 5-1/2 bevel-down planes from Lee Valley. They are wonderful and I love them. My only complaint is that the allen screws that secure the "blade carrier" and chipbreaker are easily stripped. I've also lost the cap screw that secures the Chipbreaker more than once. Anybody have a solution?
