    Nice Bazza, this is something that will also make my short list. What a quick and simple little project that will ultimately have a myriad of uses.

    I would use a handscrew or 2.

    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    Would some one make one for Me ?
    will pay for it before you make it if needed
    Pm me with the price.
    Plus postage to Tassy.
    thought if some one is making one could make two at same time.
    p.t.c

    What a great idea! Drill a hole in the one end, and you can hang it above your bench when it is not in use. I wonder if that basic idea could not be modified for the mitered corners in picture frames? Thanks, Barry!
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

    Default Gifkins clamp

    Thanks Baz for the link - Roger Gifkins has a similar but different clamp on his website at http://www.gifkins.com.au/WoodworkingPlans.html
    Download the clamp for mitred frames. We have several Club members in Newcastle who have built these and they work beautifully!

    Default Box making

    How about a router and table ($99 triton!) and a few good jigs. When I can I will post pics of some jigs I use, especially for mitred corners and spline joints.


    I like the Gifkins jig. I have used the same sort of thing (only not with the screws). Just clamps across to the fixed sides. I use a little plastic film (shopping bag) to prevent possible stickups.
