    Some creative clamping

    Sometimes you have to get a little creative when clamping. I'm making a couple of doors for a jewelry box with a curved front section (From Wood Magazine). The plans called for bending plywood and veneer, but I decided to use solid wood. For the curved portion of each door I ripped three...

    Clamping Problem

    Need help clamping odd shape

    I need help. I got suckered into some reproduction work, I'm in the home stretch and now I am stuck. I rebuilt the legs like they were and now I don't know how to clamp this up. I have a few band clamps, but they slip up the legs when tightened.
