Making Bandsaw Table Clamping Easier
Oct 25, 2005
A corollary of Murphy’s Law says that whenever you want to clamp a fixture to your bandsaw or drill-press table, a rib underneath will be in the way. When I finally got tired of fighting Murphy on this one, I cut blocks of wood and epoxied them into the odd-shape cavities between the ribs underneath the table. The blocks, which are slightly thicker than the depth of the cavities, let me put clamps wherever I want without worrying if I’ll have a flat, solid perch.
