Where did you find these type of clamps? I have not seen them. I am always trying new clamps that work well with T tracks. The 2nd picture I do not see how they work and why 4 other screws?

I made these clamps and they work extremly well. I have never hit one yet due to their very low exposure. let me know if you have any questions

Questions:

Feeds/speeds/bits?

Lubrication?

How did you handle the metal shavings going everywhere, like into the bearings of the machine?

there was not very much of that due to light cuts and a low feed rate.

zero flute and lowest speed on makita router I forget what feed but not excesivley low

Hi Scott

I printed the clamps on my Prusa, the picture shows the options for holding down the clamps, the centre two are for using with a T track, the four other bolts are used the hold down the clamps using the inserts on the table,
