    Hold down clamp

    Good day

    You could see it on the 45* cutting sled.

    Take a clamp, remove the fixed jaw, weld angle iron, drill two holes and screw it on whatever you want.

    And the HF 6" clamps are cheap when they go on sale! Thanks for the idea, Niki.

      and if you don't have a welder, a couple L brackets would work great too. And with no welder I'd use aluminum angle - easier to drill out.

        Toggle clamps work well in similar applications -

        on the downside they cost more and have possibly less range of adjustment.

        On the upside, they take less work and they'll have a lower profile.

        If your only tool is a hammer, you tend to treat all problems as if they were nails.
