FACE PLATE WORK HOLDING AWKWARD OBJECTS

(1/3) > >>

Not my idea it came from Mr Harrold Hall. I have a project coming up that will extend the reach of my 6'' four jaw chuck  I need to hold a 6 sided object and i need it to be controlled pretty tight so i made these nice side forcing clamps.

 

Not hard to make and very useful..




as you can see they are pretty versatile....

 









The slots in the one clamp allow the pressure to be applied perpendicular to the job via the grub screws . The other block clamps are just  buttress blocks, Align your work piece with a prick mark, center it with a carbide center, squeeze it in and clamp the piece accordingly.

That's pretty slick.  Howard Hall does come up with some very good ideas.

Anthony,

Yes, those are pretty neat.

Just one question, Don't you need two 'tighteners' ? One opposing each fixed buttress.

Dave.

There are two.

DavidA:
Seadog,

Where is the second one ?

I did expect to see two, but can only find one; that's why I queried it.
