Lots of folks worried about clamping, just thought you might like to see one of the methods I use. Couple of bowls held against 0the 90 deg fence,very quick & secure.
I feed the cylinders just 50 psi and have yet to have a part move.
For profile cutting I try to use vacuum fixtures to save the spoil bd.Both methods very quick,no more tape & glue, or high profile clamps.

Sorry about that, Shoulda sourced them. Note the mounting holes are for 5mm bolts so enlarged the drill holes to take a 1/4 bolt for T tracks and T nuts on the spoil bd.Also use a couple with longer strokes on my glue board for clamping cutting boards.

What else do you need besides the two air pistons?I really like this. I want to give it a try.Is there a certain size air tube I need or do I need some type of solenoid to run it or can I just put 50 psi on it with a regulator and open and close it to make it work?
Thanks, Advance,
Eddie
I use1/4"press to fit connectors and a valve controller.The tube I found at Homedepot,I like it because it is soft and lays down.

You can buythe tubing at amazon,I find it is hard and has to be held down.
Hope this helps.
