Screw head goes to T-groove.

Attachment 31805

It has a swivel on the middle so, when finger screw is tightened it presses other end against the work piece.


Movable jaw is made from two same sized washers, with different sized holes that are weld together around the outer edge.

Attachment 31806

Both ends of the pipe is nuts, that are pressed inside it, and then weld together.

Attachment 31807 Attachment 31808

Tightening screw, and the one that connects washers to the pipe. Are tightened against each other inside the pipe, and secured with loctite 243.



It can be used with my track- chop saw too.

Attachment 31809

Its shape doesn't block any uses of the saw.
