  • These cam lever clamps are simple and quick to use and setup and also very easy and cheap to make.

    I've had the chance to use this table a couple of times now. It's fun to whip out in front of people:) I can see what people are talking about when they say the legs are delicate, but they're design to support a "mostly" vertical load, not be torqued from the side or pushed back into place. If you just let the table open or close on it's own and don't force anything, it works great czcams.com/users/postUgkxyFZUPFEey-PuqsPMxqaykBhgA1LWxFHh Once it's set up, it's pretty solid. My only gripe would probably be related to the clamps provided. They're not the highest quality. They do the job, so no big deal, but they could be better. All in all, pretty cool gadget.

    Not only are you clever enough to design and make, you also film what you do, explain what you do in very good English, edit it all to make perfect sense. Well done very clever Marius.

    Just finished a set of 4 clamps and stop blocks. These are amazing and will allow me to use them for carving and other woodwork. Thanks again for the precise presentation and templates.

  • @RickTizzy

    it takes brilliance to come up with the most simple and effective solutions. Excellent!

  • @stevemc2794
    @stevemc2794 Před 7 lety +2

    Great idea! Watched this, printed the template and ran out to the shop to make them. They work great! Easy setup, hold very well, stay put and doesn't damage the work piece. Will use them on my glue up and sanding tables. Don't have a CNC yet but I will find plenty of options for this system like homemade bar clamps and perhaps picture frame adaptation. The best part is, they are made from scrap so I can make as many as I want without a trip to the hardware store.

  • @willemkossen
    @willemkossen Před 8 lety +75

    I already have the holes, but i still need to build my bench around them.
    I really like these dogholeclamps!!

  • @John._.T
    @John._.T Před 5 lety +4

    I just wanted to say how amazing these are and a really really BIG thank you for making this video! I'm new to CNC, having built one in my attic as a project. I was creating my spoilboard and was initially looking at threaded inserts in a matrix style to then screw clamps to. However, I found your vidoe and the plans for the clamps and gave it a go today. The results are amazing!! I'm soooo pleased. If you ever find yourself in Fife, Scotland then I owe you a couple of beers. Thanks again for your great videos. Really like your humour and your style. Cheers :-)

  • @ShawnVincent
    @ShawnVincent Před 6 lety +1

    Awesome design. I built a pair of these out of a scrap of Luan plywood underlayment left over from a closet reno, and they were easy to build, and FREE! I finished them and tried them out tonight for the first time and they work great! Thanks for posting this design!

  • @emadigan523
    @emadigan523 Před 6 lety

    Thank you very much, you are a great engineer. I was initially interested in looking for a low profile clamp system for a wood carving table but see this will also work great on my larger work table. Very nice work.

  • @VacFink

    Clever engineering and quite appreciated for those who aren't so inclined. Thanks! Keep it up.

    Smart, smart, smart!! When I downloaded your drawing from your original "Cam Lever Clamp" video, I thought, WTF!! Very smart design which I will implement on my DIY CNC. Thanks.

  • @tsstn

    Once again you give us a brilliant idea executed with the precision of an aged master craftsman. And thanks for showing the little mistakes along the way. It serves as a great reminder that even the best projects are built by humans. So we break an egg or two, omelets are delicious! Great work Sir, thank you for sharing.

  • @tonyiannetta
    @tonyiannetta Před 7 lety +1

    Hello again, ECXELENT VID!!!
    i completed my first set of cnc worktable clamps as per your template plans provided & it works great.
    Next time i will use a better solid wood as the ply is prone to splitting at the laminate seams and high crush pressures.
    Thanks again for sharing, explaining & demonstrating.

  • @neatpleats11
    @neatpleats11 Před 7 lety

    I have my holes in the table and the original clamps and so far, looking good. Now to tackle the square ones. Great job.

  • @DBYNOE
    @DBYNOE Před 8 lety +44

    Clever clever, interesting to see the progression to these and how they surperseed your immediate prior designs. I think these deserve a patent.

    • @68HC060
      @68HC060 Před 5 lety +1

      Patent is too late now. Besides, cam-levers are widely known already. The idea is still awesome and deserves lots of credit!
      -Now you can build your workbench without needing to install a vise; just drill dog-holes instead and use cam-levers - you can of course combine that with hold-fast and other clamping methods.

    Awesome idea. I just commented on Izzy Swan's channel that as someone starting to fill out a shop clamps have been a big issue for me. They are so expensive so do what I can with the few I have. Making them is so much cheaper. Thanks!

  • @xnadave
    @xnadave Před 5 lety +1

    I made a set today. They work great - thanks for sharing this. I had to adjust the DXF to accomodate imperial (blech) pipe. I cut the whole set out of a piece of 24"x24" birch plywood, then used them for another project after the glue dried. Very cool stuff. Maybe half an hour of tweaking the CAD and getting the CAM set up, about 10 minutes to cut.

    • @giftedscribble
      @giftedscribble Před 5 lety

      Hello, I need to change the file to accommodate 15mm pipe, do I just need to reduce the circle size where the pipes go, or scale down the whole design? Any help appreciated!

  • @jonathandavis7152
    @jonathandavis7152 Před 3 lety

    Nice work, Thanks for the out takes. After a frustrating day getting the CNC router working again and cutting into a screw with the router bit, I needed the laugh!

  • @grantlesueur
    @grantlesueur Před 5 lety +6

    I love your videos Marius and I have to say this one always peaked my interest but did have cause to build any. I was trying to figure out the curve type you needed for the cam action and determined that it really needs to be an archimedes spiral - which is one whose distance from the center increases equally with each unit of degrees rotation. The common failing is that people believe a circle with an offset center is the secret and it isn't because that has an inconsistent clamping force depending where the binding point is.
    Wie die anderen schon gesagt haben - Gut gemacht Junge!

    • @malcolmhodgson7540
      @malcolmhodgson7540 Před 8 měsíci

    I’ve been contemplating a rebuild on my work bench and installing dog holes in it but didn’t want to make it as thick as you need for traditional hold downs but with your idea I can do it with just a sheet of 3/4” plywood and still have the holding power I want and need

    @peterciurea7771 Před 3 lety +1

    Play with some of the sides being cut at a overhang angle, that way you can bring in some downward pressure. Specific flute patterns cut and pull the piece up. Side pressure does present some opposition to an upward vector, but it drops off exponentially.The copper tube lugs should have some roughness to max friction in the dog hole.
