Vise and Halloween stuff

[new2woodwrk]

One of the problems I have, specially with puzzles is when I get down to the last 2 pieces to cut, they are small and difficult to cut and often I get chatter or have issues staying within the line.

I saw this on YTube and thought I'd give it a try. I made it out of some scrap Ply I had and bought a rod and some nuts. I haven't used it yet, but probably sometime this week.

Also, more of the wifes Halloween cuts. Next is to put them all together.

Thanks as always in advance for reading

Good idea on the clamp and excellent cutting!

Hi Jes:
The Vice that you show is also good for holding Compound cut patterns
After you cut the one side, flip it  over and clamp it into this vice, 
This way everything stays together until you finish the second cut.
