Enter the Sjobergs Elite Clamping Platform. Paired with the right accessories, its all-over pattern of dog holes lets you clamp any carving\u2014even irregular shapes.<\/p>\n<p>The 18-1\/2&#8243; by 23-1\/2&#8243; (47cm by 60cm) platform is large enough to hold most projects while still fitting easily into your shop. It\u2019s made of solid beech wood, which will take a beating without damaging your tools, and its heavy-duty metal braces have a 100lb. (45.4kg) weight capacity, so it will hold firm even if you\u2019re pounding a large project with a mallet. It was designed to attach to a Sjobergs Elite Workbench, but can be attached to a wall or another workbench instead.<\/p>\n<p>The platform is covered in 3\/4&#8243; (19mm)-diameter dog holes, which allow you to use almost any clamping accessory or configuration. It comes with four bench dogs, works well with the company\u2019s ST11-Holdfast and other holding accessories, and accommodates cam-style clamps, shop-made fences and wedges, and even devices made by other manufacturers, such as Veritas\u2019 Wonder Dog. You could thread a bench screw up through one of the holes into a carving.<\/p>\n<p>Although an experienced woodworker with the right tools could make a similar clamping bench, building one as solid and exact as this platform would take days. Too, drilling all of the holes exactly perpendicular to the surfaces (including the sides) would be a challenge, and the usefulness of the platform drops dramatically if the holes aren\u2019t perfect.<\/p>\n<p>For solid construction and endless versatility at a convenient size, the Sjobergs Elite Clamping Platform is the ideal solution.<\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"gslideshow\" class=\"gss-container\">\n\t<div class=\"cycle-slideshow\" \n\t\tdata-cycle-slides=\"> a\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-timeout=\"0\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-prev=\"#gslideshow_prev\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-next=\"#gslideshow_next\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-pager=\"#gslideshow_pager\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-pager-template=\"<a href=#>&nbsp;<\/a>\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-speed=\"750\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-center-horz=\"true\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-caption=\"#gslideshow_captions\"\n\t\tdata-cycle-caption-template=\"{{cycleCaption}}\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<div id=\"gslideshow_pager\" class=\"gss-pager\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/sjobergs-elite-clamping-platform\/img_4967\/\" data-cycle-caption=\"Use the hold down to secure a relief carving.\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_4967-300x225.jpg\" title=\"IMG_4967\" alt=\"IMG_4967\" \/><\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/sjobergs-elite-clamping-platform\/img_4983\/\" data-cycle-caption=\"Use the bench dogs with a shop-made cam to lock an irregularly shaped blank in place. \"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_4983-300x225.jpg\" title=\"IMG_4983\" alt=\"IMG_4983\" \/><\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/sjobergs-elite-clamping-platform\/img_4975\/\" data-cycle-caption=\"Use the hold down to clamp down an in-the-round carving.\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_4975-300x225.jpg\" title=\"IMG_4975\" alt=\"IMG_4975\" \/><\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/sjobergs-elite-clamping-platform\/img_4987\/\" data-cycle-caption=\"From this side, you can see how the hold-down fits into the holes in the side of the platform so you can press a carving against a dog.\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/IMG_4987-278x370.jpg\" title=\"IMG_4987\" alt=\"IMG_4987\" \/><\/a>\n\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/sjobergs-elite-clamping-platform\/side\/\" data-cycle-caption=\"From this angle, you can see the dog the carving rests against.\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/woodcarvingillustrated.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Side-300x225.jpg\" title=\"Side\" alt=\"Side\" \/><\/a>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"gss-info\">\n\t\t<div class=\"gss-nav\"><div id=\"gslideshow_prev\" class=\"gss-prev\">&lt;<\/div><div id=\"gslideshow_next\" class=\"gss-next\">&gt;<\/div><\/div><div class=\"gss-long-cap\">From this side, you can see how the hold-down fits into the holes in the side of the platform so you can press a carving against a dog.<\/div><div id=\"gslideshow_captions\" class=\"gss-captions\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<hr \/>\n<p>The Sj\u00f6bergs Elite Clamping Platform retails for $468.
