I feel pretty stupid asking this question about how to use a work bench, but I've never had one. My tablesaw has always been my bench. HF had one on sale, i know ,i know but poor people have poor ways.
Anyway the question is about dogs you put in the top of the bench. I was clamping a small piece of wood and I could only use one dog on the bench and one on the vise.
That put the vise in a bind (only pushing on one side). I had to get a larger piece to stradle two dogs to make it work. Do you have to have a bunch of scrap around to use these dogs? (dogs may be the wrong word their small metal 3/4x3/4 that drop in the 3/4 hole)
Thanks guys and gals
PS
I went on youtube and typed in everything I could think off and couldn't find a thing
