How many screws in the tote of a low angle jack?

[Jasper Homminga]

Hi all,

I just came across this message on a Stanley #62. From these images it seems that the tote has only one screw (the long one running the length of the tote), which left me wondering how many screws the tote really needs.
Reason for asking? Well like many, I find the Veritas totes uncomfortable, I changed the one on my 4 1/2 and am now thinking about the low angle jack. I would really like another tote on my Veritas low angle jack, but ALF's jobscares me. If I can get by with just the long screw in the tote ...
