    Hi, Philip,

    I think the piece you mean is a stationary spacer that’s c-clamped to the vertical face of the base so the part can index off of a corner. The toggle arm clamps the part against it as well as the horizontal base of the fixture.

    Here is what those parts look like at a later stage, the fixture was used holding them to cut the round bottomed slots on the glued on cross grained pieces.
