My 1st real project now that I have all the kinks worked out with my XXL.

I wanted to design a clamp that can hold the piece in place while also elevating it off the work surface, so you can cut/drill all the way through. I didn’t want to keep using a junk piece underneath. With the addition of the 2nd hole, I found it easier to square the clamp, and keep it from moving when bumped. The recesses are made to fit the head of the screws that I bought off amazon.

Vcarve Pro is what I use. Yeah, it’s expensive at $700, but I found it SUPER easy to learn. Besides, it has a crazy amount of features and plugins. I’m including my vcarve file, as well as the gcode - for those who use something else. I used a 1x6 to make these. Working piece dimensions are 20"x5"x.75". There’s 4 tabs to hold the piece in place after the outside is cut.

Feedback appreciated.
