    Homemade “wonder pup”

    Wonder Dog and Wonder Pup are registered trademarks of bench clamps manufactured by Veritas (Veritas Tools - Workbench Accessories - Wonder Dogs® and Pups®), which are marketed by several woodworking tool companies.

    Inspired by these clamps, after I made the http://www.homemadetools.net/forum/c...ench-dog-53495, several modifications were to follow:

    1- The first change was the addition of a swivel handle. I used 3/8” (16 TPI) threaded rod, and hexagonal brass rod.

    2- The second change was the addition of a rectangular aluminum head to the screw tip, in order to attach wooden cutouts, for clamping curved or irregular shapes.

    3- Last change was to make the post with rolled steel, giving the final result of my homemade version of a “wonder pup”.
