Shop Made Bench Dog Clamps

[@oldmarine312]

Was just talking to a friend about doing this, then I thought, someone has probably already done this. I am so smart!

Always trying to find better ways to hold stuff down! :)

Hi Jammie really liked the video and very simple idea considering the cost of holdfast clamps. From your experience of using the clamps what is the maximum timber thickness you can clamp.

[@JamiesHobbies-GGB]

I think the max I every really tried was 1" boards and they held down just fine - generally I prefer the side clamps though because these are kinda in the way for CNC work :)

I made a Long Bar Double Clamp .This all-in-one clamp covers the entire table. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qX7bi4OjjLCmqNE

Nice - thanks for sharing

So you have to use 4 of them at the same time?

[@JamiesHobbies-GGB]

It all depends really - with the CNC I like to have as many options to hold stuff down as possible :)
