HMS Enterprize 1774 by arban007

I forgot to ask, or maybe it was asked and I missed it. Did you make your clamps shown in post 122? I made a set based on information from Ed Tosti, author of several books including the Naiad volumes and Young America, Extreme Clipper The only difference is that I used wooden jaws rather than metal. Yours appear to be metal, which I really like, but do they dent the wood?
Thanks
Allan

This set of clamps was specially made for me by my teacher before retirement, a token of our teacher-student relationship for me to keep as a memento! So far, as long as they are tightened moderately, there has been no damage to the wood!
