<p>John,</p>
<p>Place a "wedge" on the surface of the workpiece,</p>
<p>for the swivel clamp face to rest on.</p>
<p></p>
<p>To resist slippage of the wedge:</p>
<p>bond a sheet of slip-resistant material on wedge the face, that mates with the workpiece surface.</p>
<p>Slip resistant material, such as the waffle workbench type material, skate board slip resistant material, </p>
<p>Just to name a couple types.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Options(s):</p>
<p>a. use hot-melt to secure the wedge in place---the wedge can be easily removed by prying it off, and the glue residue scraped off.</p>
<p>b. use a snippet of small diameter wire solder,</p>
<p>c. snippet of wire brad</p>
<p>d. small dia lead balls</p>
<p>e. double-stick tape</p>
<p>just to name a few.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Installing brads in the wedge face:</p>
<p>insert the brad about 1/4" deep</p>
<p>leave the head exposed</p>
<p>trim the brad down to the workpiece surface with diagonal cutting pliers,</p>
<p>this will leave a small pointed piece of the brad showing.</p>
<p>the brad point(s) will grip with the mating surface.</p>
<p></p>
<p>To minimize the little prick-punch marks in the workpiece, left by the brad points,</p>
<p>headless pin brads can be used.</p>
<p>They can be installed by pushing them into the wood, using pliers, then trimming them off, as described above.</p> Hi, Tim. Thank you for your…tag:kregjig.ning.com,2015-12-24:2900167:Comment:7859852015-12-24T14:08:50.703ZJohn Tomkinsonhttps://kregjig.ning.com/profile/JohnTomkinson
<p>Hi, Tim. Thank you for your response. I might try fashioning a 'jig' set-up to accommodate clamps and to reduce wider angles. It's kinda fun to be creative, and with Kreg items, it makes diy ideas accessible. All the best for this Holiday Season, Tim, from the Kootenays in BC, Canada. 'John'</p>
