Clamp Plates for the metal cutting chop saw...

[bruce.desertrat]

Shoulda just clamped the plates together in the beginning to drill the holes...saved you some drill press time. A couple a screws in opposite corners would have sufficed. but all in all a very slick build.

Thanks for checking out the vid!

I thought about that - but opted to take my time with it due to the forstner bit getting a little heated up as it gets to the bottom of the holes. Might be a drill press speed thing??? I'm way out of my depths when it comes to working with wood
