    Are they the same as the Rockler bench cookies; "as seen on Stu's Shed"?

    $40 seems a bit much though.

    I'm pretty sure all the bench cookies are made by one company and re-badged as needed. Rockler owns the patent. They sell them from their own site over here and in Lowes and Home Depot (Bunnings) under the bench Dog brand.

    $40 is a bit steep, but they do work a treat.
    Cheers,

    Bob

    Actually, a bench dog is a hold down inserted into a purpose-made hole in yer bench to secure material.

    In this case, it is a company (Bench Dog) that sells WW tools.

    I thought they were those angled bits o' metal that get jammed in a hole? Bench Dogs (the company) only seem to have router things.

    Hmm, I have had what I originaly thought were no slip chocks but then when bench cookies came out I realised were Claws Iced Brownies, take any piece of timber scrap spray or slap on some glue, Tarzans Grip, Contact Cement or spray glue, grab a non slip mat from the $2 shop (the type you can put on your dash board etc) or coles or Bunnies and wrap, ,,,no not taht sort. 30min if that and about $5.
