    Lewin combination plane

    Thanks Gaz pal i'll try what you suggest. Are the little cam locks all interchangeable or for a specific location? i've solved the problem with the blade by keeping a rough back and by using a little strip of fine wet and dry behind the blade seems to work for me! thanks for the info. Ryan
