Bisch Basch Bosch | Clamping Oblique and Square Mitre Joints @BischBaschBosch | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
This short video shows a couple of ways to pull mitre joints - whether square, oblique or even offset oblique like mine - tight, without needing to resort to excessive force. There's one main basic rule to follow, plus a couple other handy pointers to help stop clamp slip along the way.
My favoured clamping aide is the home made/DIY blocks made from scrap wood for the job.
The principle of these wooden blocks with a cutaway can be used much wider mitre joints too - on a waterfall table for example. Rather than a small block with a birds mouth cut away, you do the cutaway along a board the width of your workpiece. Just remember that centre line through the mitre!!
A really versatile clamping aide shown at the end of the video is the lollipop type. You can find these on the Aliexpress link below.
