But Enquiring minds want to know...
So are the rods captured in the front bar so you can drive the rear bar in and out? or do you just push it by hand to the back when opening it?
How about a strip of wood on the back bar covering the T-nuts so they don't fall out when pushing the rear bar back. Or, is this only optimized for clamping force (one way).Loring in Katy, TX USA
If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.

So yes, it looks better.

JR, Clamp is for drill press, sanding, etc. where you need to hole small parts firmly and perhaps, squarely.
Hey Rod, any problems with binding? Seems like you have to turn one knob a bit, then the other taking short, very short turns with each. To reduce binding, you'd have to drill tapered holes, at least in the horizontal plane.Loring in Katy, TX USA

When I click on Rod's attachment, a BT3 window comes up that says: "Invalid attachment specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator."
Anybody knows what that's all about?

The good news is that all of the images are still in the backup file. I just have to figure out how to get to them without hosing up everything else.Sam Conder
