I know this has been around before, but what do you guys and gals do if the set screw on your blade clamps keeps working it's way out-- not sure if lock-tite is the answer--any help--thanks  Richard aka thumbs :o :o

Loctite is fine.  They make a red and a blue.  One is more permanent but I forget which.  Pretty sure the blue is more temporary.  I would use the temporary.
