DIY WOODEN HOLDFASTS | They are better than I thought!
In this video I will be making a pair of wooden holdfasts. Normally they are made from metal from obvious reasons. However if used good quality hardwoods they can hold up as well.

Another simple but effective clamp and at a fraction of the price of the steel versions ... all I need to do now is make an MFT bench 👍

From personal experience I wouldn't recommend to have the whole top with holes. Just a section.

Great video, Thank you....does the clamping piece have to have a slight arch on the bottom side or is that just for looks ? Also should the dowel fit snug in the hole or should the hole be slightly larger....and if so by how much ? Thank you again

@CasualDIY 2 ай бұрын

Yes should be on a slightly angle thanks to that it wedges in the dog holes. It needs to be snug but not so much that you can't move it.

Oh come on now Tomasz, just stop with the hole using stuff will ya! You are making it very difficult to resist - I even checked over my pristine bench earlier to see if holes are feasible and, guess what, they bloody well would be… 👀 🪚 🙄 Seriously though, a great tool made very efficient and looking very useful, good job matey… 👍🏻 ✅ 👏🏻

@CasualDIY 2 ай бұрын

Just don't transfer the whole workbench top, leave most without the holes. Trust me I'm talking from experience of fishing out screws, bolts, washers and anything else that would fit through those holes 😅

@Venomator. 2 ай бұрын

@@CasualDIY Thanks, but I’m sure I wouldn’t have that issue, my holes would go all the way through - so all the dust and debris items will end up in my under-bench storage areas… 😂
