One of the questions that every student asked during my bench-building class last week at kelly mehler’s school of woodworking was: where should i put my holes?. it sounds like a deeply personal question (one you should discuss with your doctor).. In this episode i am making bench dogs and holes in my woodworking workbench. these bench dogs are not really thick, but 18 mm pine is strong enough. i will continue the series on my workbench. A woodworking bench is more than just a table to lay your tools and project parts on. used well, your bench is an all-in-one, three-dimensional clamping solution that will allow you to hold your work on any of its edges or faces. the traditional way to increase the work-holding capability is to.
To use your bench dogs and dog holes, simply fit a bench dog into a dog hole. then, place your work against the bench dog to secure it. you can also use holdfasts for extra security.. Picks your dogs first, then make the holes fit. round dogs, like lv's, and holddowns tend to be 3/4" diameter to the best of my knowledge. the pattern depends upon the vises you use and how you like to work, what scale you work in, whether your bench is located for access to both sides (as opposed to up agains the wall) and several other factors.. In addition to bench dogs (explained well by doresoom above), there are other devices that use the same holes. a holdfast uses the thickness of the bench to hold down a piece of wood with no additional clamps..
