At 6-1/2" long, the versatile Wonder Dog® clamp can be used anywhere you can drill a 3/4" hole. It makes it easy to clamp curved work and irregular shapes. Since the dog head has two screw holes, any shape of tip can be cut with a scroll saw and quickly attached for specialized work, giving good control without marring work.Using a Wonder Dog® in combination with a standard round bench dog, you can make a clamp of any length by drilling 3/4" holes in a 2 x 4, 2 x 6, etc. Two pieces of plywood with 2 x 4s between them for spacing can be drilled in a pattern to provide clamping for curved work and an infinite variety of other shapes. At the lowest projection, only 5/8" of the dog head is above the bench. The swivel handle lets you apply ample clamping pressure in any position. The dog is drilled and tapped at a 3° angle to ensure that work is held tight to the bench.
The Wonder Dog® post is 6-1/2" and has a side spring to allow for variable height clamping. For use in bench fronts, drill-press jigs, etc.
  • Fits any 3/4" hole
  • 6-1/2" length to position at various heights with side spring
  • Swivel handle allows application of clamping pressure in any position
  • Made in Canada

    Lovely device until it broke after one week

    This was actually a fantastic benchtop work holder but it broke after one week and the fasteners went flying so far I cannot find them to reassemble.

    1 per box

    Great clamps/dogs/whatever you need em to be. Perfect for those of us without a real bench. Good for planing, routing (use a scrap face wider than bit!!), gluing, edging etc.. Though pictured in pairs, sold individually.

    Wonder Dog– Now That's a Tool!

    Wonder Dog is one of those tools that you look at and know it's going to do the job for you. I'm a woodcarver, and usually secure my work to the bench with a system of dogs, spacers and wedges. The workpiece frequently has to be repositioned for cuts from a different direction. The Wonder Dog makes this task quick and easy, and I like the fact that you can attach adapters to accomodate odd shapes. I ordered the 6-1/2" version, since I sometime carve relatively deep pieces. I've been dealing with Woodcraft for many years now and always look forward to the new catalog. The reason I keep coming back is because of items such as the Wonder Dog– Woodcraft keeps coming up with those "Why didn't I think of that one?" items. Thanks, L. Ketter
