Sten jig

[bigduke6]

Same as us Big Duke. Chipping......... hard on the hands or what!

Certainly was and more so for the ones who had never swung a hammer, I can still hear the yells of colourful language..........

The little "G" clamps which I have made over the years, very similar to the example in the photograph in post 1, have been made purely because small clamps have been required to do certain jobs. All I have done is to machine them out of a piece of mild steel and then drill and tap a thread through for a screw.

We didn't have the luxury of being able to use the machines etc for the small clamps (apart from the radial arm drill press for the hole) but it was relief to find that any hand tools could be used to remove the excess steel,
surprisingly no one bothered with the chisel........
