Hold on, this looks like a good idea after idea after idea.

That’s just how things develop, even in the commercial world believe it or not. Two or three heads are better than one.

Good work Smitty.
Around here we don’t say” borrowed idea ” we say inspired by so an so .LOL

I have never seen anyone make a de-sta-co clamp out of wood before, that is amazing.

I guess I “borryed ” an inspiration Jim. lol
thanks guys for all the great comments.
one thing I’ve already changed is, I lengthened the fence on the right side so that I have more adjust-ability on that side.
now I need a way to make it all more repeatable.
btw, I am using a 1/16” kerf blade on this. works great and less waste.

thank you Izzy, so far it is working out great, I was totally amazed that it hit the top three today.
but I can’t take all the credit for this , all I did was make a few modifications to suit my needs, all though there are all kinds of possibilities for others to modify it to fit their needs with both the sled and clamps.

I like it! That is one beefy hold down clamp!
