Small Piece Clamp for Mitre Saws
Jul 25, 2010
Since I enjoy having fingers and some beveled/mitred cuts dont necessarily fit the engineering of the saw, I came up with this to both keep my fingers a healthy distance away from the blade while also keeping the work clamped to the surface of the saw.
The pictures say it all as to how to construct it.

This looks like a great jig to increase the safety when cutting small pieces. Excellent idea! Does the support for the adjustable arm get in the way when the saw is tilted 45* to the left?
Not at all. If it did, no worries it is all sacrificial or move it to the other side. The Makita that is in the photo allows me to switch the clamp to either side as needed. If you need to cut the jig to make it work for what you are doing go for it. After all jigs are there to meet the needs of the worker. I realize the jig isn't exactly rocket science, but I enjoy my digits too much not to use it.
