These mini edge clamps grip the side of a workpiece to keep the top clear for machining. Patented design features a slotted countersink to provide strong, reliable clamping force with the easy turn of a hex wrench. These compact clamps are ideal for fixturing multiple parts, small or large. Each clamp has both a serrated face (for maximum gripping) and a smooth face (to avoid marring finished parts). These clamps look so simple, but work amazingly well, with major advantages over earlier designs. Flat Jaw Patent number 5.624.106. Made in USA. (Reversible, Serrated or Smooth) Clamping force is applied by positive screw action with the easy turn of a hex wrench (not with an unreliable, unsafe eccentric cam as Clamping force is applied by positive screw action with used in other designs). A high-strength Flat- the easy turn of a hex wrench. Head Socket Screw engages a mating offset countersink to exert strong clamping force. Much more durable than other designs. Only Tiny Vise Edge Clamps truly exert down thrust force on the workpiece, to prevent it from lifting. A thrust washer underneath the clamp engages a mating offset countersink to provide downward action. Patented design features a slotted countersink. Available in a wide range of sizes, from a miniature #8-32 thread size, up to a powerful 1”-8 thread size with 2500 lbs clamping force.

  • Manufacturing Glossary
    MANUFACTURING GLOSSARY Aging – A change in the properties of certain metals and alloys that occurs at ambient or moderately elevated temperatures after a hot-working operation or a heat-treatment (quench aging in ferrous alloys, natural or artificial aging in ferrous and nonferrous alloys) or after a cold-working operation (strain aging). The change in properties is often, but not always, due to a phase change (precipitation), but never involves a change in chemical composition of the metal or alloy. Abrasive – Garnet, emery, carborundum, aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, diamond, cubic boron nitride, or other material in various grit sizes used for grinding, lapping, polishing, honing, pressure blasting, and other operations. Each abrasive particle acts like a tiny, single-point tool that cuts a small chip; with hundreds of thousands of points doing so, high metal-removal rates are possible while providing a good finish. Abrasive Band – Diamond- or other abrasive-coated endless band fitted to a special band machine for machining hard-to-cut materials. Abrasive Belt – Abrasive-coated belt used for production finishing, deburring, and similar functions.See coated abrasive. Abrasive Cutoff Disc – Blade-like disc with abrasive particles that parts stock in a slicing motion. Abrasive Cutoff Machine, Saw – Machine that uses blade-like discs impregnated with abrasive particles to cut/part stock. See saw, sawing machine. Abrasive Flow Machining – Finishing operation for holes, inaccessible areas, or restricted passages. Done by clamping the part in a fixture, then extruding semisolid abrasive media through the passage. Often, multiple parts are loaded into a single fixture and finished simultaneously. Abrasive Machining – Various grinding, honing, lapping, and polishing operations that utilize abrasive particles to impart new shapes, improve finishes, and part stock by removing metal or other material.See grinding.

  • Split-Top Roubo Bench Plans
    SPLIT-TOP ROUBO BENCH PLANS Design, Construction Notes and Techniques Copyright Benchcrafted 2009-2014 · No unauthorized reproduction or distribution. You may print copies for your own personal use only. 1 Roubo’s German Cabinetmaker’s Bench from “L’Art Du Menuisier” ~ Design ~ The Benchcrafted Split-Top Roubo Bench is largely based on the workbenches documented by French author André Roubo in his 18th-century monumental work “L’Art Du Menuisier” (“The Art of the Joiner”). The Split-Top bench design primarily grew out of Roubo’s German cabinetmaker’s bench documented in volume three of Roubo’s series. Author and bench historian Christopher Schwarz, who has re-popularized several classic bench designs of late, and most notably the Roubo, was also an influence through his research and writings. We built a version of Roubo’s German bench and it served as a platform from which the Split-Top Roubo was conceived. We were attracted to the massive nature of Roubo’s German design and were interested to see how the sliding leg vise in particular functioned in day-to-day use. From the start we opted to do away with the traditional sliding-block tail vise, with its pen- chant for sagging and subsequent frustration. In the process of the bench’s development the Benchcrafted Tail Vise emerged and it has proven to be an excellent workholding solution, solving all of the problems of traditional tail vises without sacrificing much in terms of function, i.e., the ability to clamp between open-front jaws. For all the aggrava- 2 tion that the Benchcrafted Tail Vise eliminates, that feature isn’t missed all that much.
