This is a quick project to blend the benefits of the Oops clamps with the reach and ease of use of Incra Build-It clamps. Using a T-Track, I often find the Oops clamps a little fiddly unless I can shim under the rear bolt head. The Incra clamps are wide enough that they straddle the tslot track, and as such can be positioned more easily. They are also a little bit longer, but suffer from being overly tall. This causes some white-knuckle moments when the CNC moves to change tools.
I recommend machining these from nominal 3/4" PVC board, but soft wood or HDPE would likely work just as well. The uploaded *.c2d file does not push the machining speed very hard, so feel free to tune it for your system. It's designed to be simple and use (1) #201 bit. The file will produce (3) tall clamps, and (3) low clamps in < 30 minutes. My material cost was ~$2.15 for all 6.
You provide the t-bolt and t-nut to cap it off. Happy machining!

Appreciate the posting and the files. I noticed that the tip profile does not have a tool path? I looked at the file it seems to have all the info? Last question, no tabs so are you double facing tape them to the waste board? thanks again.You must be signed in to leave a comment.
