These are easy and useful rubber band clamps. Some scroll saw projects do not require heavy duty clamps just to hold a couple of small pieces together. You can easily adjust the clamping pressure by adding and removing rubber bands.
There are two sizes of the clamp in the pattern book. The longer one gives you extra reach to get into the board deeper.
Here is a quick video just showing the construction of the clamps.
Order your Custom 3D Name Block: $5 per/Name
I am caught back up on the 3D name pattern orders. It took me a couple days after I was back form the Expo in Ohio to get all the order finished. I email out the final order tonight. I am ready to take more orders if you would like to make one of these fun projects.
These 3D Name Blocks are not too difficult to cut and they always impress family and friends. Everyone will look twice trying to figure out how you made it. The pattern requires 1.5" X 1.5" X the length of the name.
You can use a clamp to hold the block while you cut but most people will be able to handhold the board while cutting.
