Woodworking Tip: V-Shaped Bench Dogs

    Great idea! Now…. How did you know I’m working on a round cutting board??? And, can you answer John Galanas’ question about why the bolt please?

    Great idea. Can I ask why the bolt? why not just glue?

    Will these bench dogs still have the grip if you use lets say a random orbital sander?
