Hey Blackhawk,

I think these clamps could be worth to be considered:

However their T-Track is not the same size as the one on Onefinity’s QCW Frame.

I use these clamps together with [Veritas Wonder Dog & Wonder Pup](https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/workshop/workbenches/benchtop-accessories/31129-veritas-wonder-dog-and-wonder-pup?item=05G1001)s :

 ![05G1002-wonder-pup-each-f-80_25pct_cropped](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex022/uploads/onefinitycnc/original/2X/f/f4d3ea33d3c9c51e3815bb24d7100475096f19ad.png)

At the lowest projection, only 5/8" of the dog head is above the bench. The swivel handle lets you apply ample clamping pressure in any position. The dog is drilled and tapped at a 3° angle to ensure that work is held tight to the bench.

…and with [planing stops](http://www.veritastools.com/Products/Page.aspx?p=602).

Veritas has interesting clamping products to be found under [accessories for their worksurface](http://www.veritastools.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?cat=90) and under [accessories for workbenches](http://www.veritastools.com/Products/ProductList.aspx?cat=56). Their [worksurfaces](https://www.leevalley.com/en-ca/shop/tools/workshop/workbenches/work-surfaces/73498-veritas-worksurface) have 3/4" dog holes and T-Tracks at the edges. However their T-Track is not the same size as the one on Onefinity’s QCW Frame.
