Continuing our woodworking adventures into Alabama, we arrive at the home of Woodcraft Magazine senior editor, Joe Hurst-Wajszczuk to cover his 20′ x 22′ interior garage space morphing into an extreme workshop makeover. The 2011 October/ November Issue #43 of Woodcraft Magazine features a special topic on this floor to ceiling, wall to wall transformation with detailed projects, providing instruction on turning any garage, basement or outside structure into a viable workshop.

    One of the top 10 tools in my shop!

    I have 10 of this size. I use them constantly for glue-ups. Really strong clamping pressure!

    Heavy Duty in every way

    Love the deep throat, which was my main reason for purchasing. I use for a hold-down on the drill press, and wherever I need either a lot of strength or a deep bite.
