Q: How does this bench dog clamp work?
The Veritas quick-release wonder dog clamps with a fast cam lever: slide the head against your workpiece, then flip the lever to lock it in place, and release it with the same quick motion when you're done.
05G1030 - Veritas Quick-Release Wonder Dog
This version of our Wonder Dog has a fast-acting cam mechanism to speed adjustments. You just slide the head against the workpiece, then throw the lever to apply clamping force. Curved and irregular shapes can also be clamped; two screw holes in the brass dog head let you attach a custom face of any shape, giving good control without marring work.
The low-profile head and clamp body are 5/8" and 11/16" thick respectively, so you can plane stock as thin as 3/4" without worrying about hitting the clamp. The 3/4" diameter, 2 3/4" long post lets you use it wherever you can drill a suitably sized hole, and is canted to keep the clamp head against the bench top under clamping force. The dog has just under 8" of travel. The rod, post and cam lever are made of steel.

Yes, two screw holes in the brass dog head let you mount a shop-made face shaped to match curved or irregular stock.
As thin as 3/4", thanks to the dog's low-profile 5/8" head and 11/16" clamp body.
Nearly 8", giving enough travel to clamp a wide range of stock widths from a single dog-hole location.
