My new, second hand bandsaw is fantastic but falls short when trying to cut short parts. I made this little clamp to cut down a block of alumabrass that Dallen sent me to build a new drive block for my shaper. Turns out there will be enough in the block to make some new gibs for my Unimat 3 lathe as well, long as I can cut it
I didn't have the right length bolt and didn't have time to cut a spacer so I tried cutting a section of tube. I clamped the tube a little tight and deformed it slightly but for flat stock it should be great.
