MFT clamp dogs

MFT clamp dogs

Description

For this build i used 25mm MDF as a base. If thats a bit to thick for your liking you could build parts 03-04 separately and just stop the build at 20mm/15mm. Firstly measure and mark for drilling at equal spacing ( I did mine at 100mm) but think its a personal preference depending on your type of work pieces . Drill larger aperture first (35mm diameter ) to a depth of 10-11mm. Then drill all the way through material with second drill (29mm). I just used a little wood glue and tapped the inserts down with a mallet. depending on print quality they may need a quick fettle to make sure they seat together with the dogs nicely, but not to tight. I've used them a few times and they seem to do the trick, i do use a few pieces of 10mm ply when the spacing isn't ideal so i can crank the cams as far around as possible. I suggest you just print the one set first and check for clearance suitability, hopefully all is well. P.S: I have just added some extra parts, inc. an adjustable dog (3 position) .Cam part with modified tessellated cam so it lock into position a little better, and a corner dog.
