Tooling Plate Clamps

[jjr2001]

These straps and clamps can be used on either of my tooling plates:

I think I saw the idea for the eccentric clamps on this forum and it was posted by Rick Sparber. Thanks Rick.
The eccentric head of the hex screws push the little round clamp into the piece you want to hold. The part would be backed up against a steel reference bar. Very low profile.

The others are just toe clamps and some positioning bars that can be used for aligning work. I will need to drill one more hole (maybe a slot instead of a hole) in each alignment bar for a more secure setup but they do work as is for light work.

Also shown are a pair of 5 degree wedges which can be useful for setting parts up and a few T-slot nuts just made from 1018 steel for general setup use.

Cheers, JR
