Post subject:  Something I started doing with my jigs

I've been putting threaded inserts into my bench then drilling corresponding holes into my jigs so that I can screw them down to my workbench. This way I don't have clamps in the way and the jig isn't going anywhere. I'm finding it super handy maybe someone else will too.

I have dog holes in my bench, so I put the threaded inserts in the jigs and put jig knobs with 2" bolts through the bottom of the bench into the jigs.

Yes, this is a real good idea.. I was going to do something a bit more complicated, but your way
sounds better- thanks!
