At that point I would think it would start to be too much work to use the Veritas tool. It's a valid proof-of-concept, but maybe at this point to put in the changes you suggest it might be better just to start from scratch and build a setup like a molding plane. It would run either direction, and you could build it with a skew blade to handle tricky grain. There was a company near here that made them commercially, so every antique store in the area has some. I don't pick them up until they are under $5, but it seems to me that for $5 you could re-contour the sole and re-grind the blade and not be out too much in time or money.
