More clamping options

I made this tool to clamp long boards to the edge of my bench top. The face vise holds the other end of the board.

"Gooday everyone, I'm glad eveybody could be here today - what with the 10 feet of snow and all....

Wood working is a skill that I have seen modeled in my Opa, uncles, Dad and brother. A skill that I want to build on - literally and figuratively.

Meanwhile by the Jordan river....

The company of the prophets said to Elisha, "Look, the place where we meet with you is too small for us. Let us go to the Jordan, where each of us can get a pole and let us build a place there for us to meet"
And he said, "Go."
Then one of them said " Won't you please come with your servants ?"
"I will," Elisha replied. And he went with them.
They went to the Jordan and began to cut down trees. As one of them was cutting down a tree, the iron axhead fell into the water.
"Oh no, my lord! he cried out. "It was borrowed!"
The man of God asked, "Where did it fall?" When he showed him the place, Elisha cut a stick and threw it there, and made the iron float. "Lift it out ," he said. Then the man reached out his hand and took it.

2 Kings chapter 6 (NIV) Old Testament of the Holy Bible.
