Another use for my bandsaw sub base.

Hi
Remember the base I made to hold small things in the bandsaw?

I have been making a fixed steady

and a travelling steady ( not quite finished)

and I needed to hold the brass fingers on the mill to shamfer the corners off so I came up with this

I think this is turning out to be a useful little gadget.

That's turning out to be a handy piece of kit, Roy!  :thumbup:

That base looks to be very useful and not difficult to make, that's a great combination to my thinking.
