Okay that did not quite work as I expected but it is there (in prior message). I couldn't resist showing the new Amana blade and how one can lock various items into both the Jaw and the C clamp of the welding jig. Assembling that concoction I realize the endless possibilities. Yup I see a second one on the horizon. Many thanks to Stu for his belief and educating me on this terrific tool. Incidentally I had occasion to use the four legged option the day before my Jawhorse arrived. It's heavy, cumbersome and no more stable than the Jawhorse. I truly believe it would be difficult to turn that baby over. fjimp:):D:rolleyes:

That is a dangerous looking machine!:D Should have come with a blade guard and riving knife.
