Hand forged Holdfast 5/8 Inch Set Of 2 Blacksmith Handmade Woodworking Bench Dog:
$45.00
This is for a set of 2 mild steel Holdfasts for clamping your woodworking project to your bench. They are 5/8 inch round and approximately 13 inches long. Each will vary in exact size and shape as they are handmade to order. They will have hammer marks, blackened finish, and some pitting and oxidation. They work best in a 3/4 inch round hole in your bench (#12 auger bit) and with a relatively thick bench-top. Simply hit the holdfast with a mallet or hammer to secure it and tap the back of the holdfast to release. Oil and wax will negatively effect the holdfasts ability to clamp. Also available in 1/2 thickness for medium duty. Look us up Carter & Son Forge on etsy and facebook.
