I laughed way too hard when you secured those elf shoes. Brilliant work my friend, keep stealing those elves shoes so you can afford more -wood- Pabst!
That rope hold down technique is brilliant. I love how easy it makes "active" work where you're rotating a piece, or doing multiple pieces. I don't have a use for it yet, but I'm excited to try it out when I do.
*kneeling and wailing 'I'm not worthy!' repeatedly!* 😂 😂 😂 Seriously, you have some great ideas and that rope trick was really clever. Can't wait to see more!
Thanks for the ideas, I will be using some of those ideas in my shop, with prices going up as they are I've been making thing instead of buying. Thanks again.
That was simply the best dog hole related video I’ve ever seen. And I’ve watched tonnes! Thank you so much - I’ll be busy making some of those this very afternoon!
I'm a newb woodworker just getting into the trade and I found all these videos on how and where to drill dog holes but couldn't find any vids on how the dog hole accessories work. Finally came across your video and now I understand them perfectly. Thanks so much!
Good stuff. I just noticed that a wooden broomstick I had cut off for another project is exactly 3/4" in diameter. Perfect for cutting up into bench dogs 😀
Outstanding, Zach! I've been very dissatisfied with model of vertical dog-hole clamps that I own. I've broken four of them so far and was about to give up on the idea until I saw how you were able to make a very similarly-functioning one yourself. I think I'll give that a shot! Oh... and I love the PBR shirt. :D
Awesome man! Glad it was helpful! Nice to pay it forward to someone who’s given me a lot of good advice and entertainment throughout the years! Cheers bud!
This is one of the best videos for DIY dog hole accessories.! These are perfect. Exactly what I was looking for! For the conduit holdfats to work properly, what is the recommened thickness of the bench top ?
You might be able to make those Blue Kreg clamps. Fabricate a plywood puck that rotates on a dog-sized dowel. Just be sure drill the puck's hole 1.5" off-center. Snug the clamp to the work object using your hand; to lock it -just strike it with your mallet. Good luck.
Glad I found your channel. I really like practical things here, great content. I wonder if you could say the wall diameter of the conduit for those holdfasts? Now that this vid is a year old, have you had any problems with the conduit bending or deforming at stress points? Thanks for taking the time to keep us posted on what you're up to!
You are one of the most innovative folks I have seen on TH-cam and that is saying a lot. Can you tell me if you used a jig to build your dog hole bench. I just “purchased” … which even surprised me … a huge Husky roll around tool chest that has a wood top that raises / lowers. I would like to drill dog holes in it to mirror something like you have. Thank you in advance and best of luck to you.
Off subject but what apron are you wearing and how do you like it(comfort- pocket layout)? In the marked for one and like looks of yours. Great video!!
do you have 20mm or 3/4 inch dogholes for the conduit to fit? I'm going to start drilling my dogholes but am torn as to which size to drill - 20mm of 3/4 inch! I'd rather be able to build DYI stuff like you did using conduit
Love the holdfast. My sons filled my boots with marine epoxy as a gag. Now I can make holdfasts and the contact surface will be the fine leather over the steel toe. The steel toe is rather given the strength of the epoxy. I'm going to try to use the beautiful laces to set and release. The heel of the boot will tolerate a mallet, but I wouldn't want to mar the nearly new leather on the back of the heel, would I?
Okay, not for nothing, with today's technology there is no excuse for people posting videos where the audio is not in sync with the video. It is annoying and I have to move on to another video. It is to bed because the subject seemed interesting. Check out John Heisz's video on the bench dogs he made. VERY cool the way they function.
Most youtubers would have made a 28 min video out of all the ideas you presented here in under 7 minutes. Thanks for keeping it real!

Miter saw hold down clamp in dog holes!? Awesome tip!
been watching a TONNE of doghole workbench vids, and this has been the best so far for ideas and designs. great job
This is fantastic… keep up the innovation. This video is criminally under-viewed!
Top tip with the mitre saw clamp. I never use mine and I have several. Thank you for sharing!

Simple, but very very useful technique and a lot of ideas. Thank you very much indeed.
Those are awesome DIY hacks. Thanks for the video
Good stuff. I just noticed that a wooden broomstick I had cut off for another project is exactly 3/4" in diameter. Perfect for cutting up into bench dogs 😀
Great stuff, thanks! You gave me lots of options.
03:41 - The rope trick is a fantastic idea! Thanks for the upload!

Awesome man! Glad it was helpful! Nice to pay it forward to someone who’s given me a lot of good advice and entertainment throughout the years! Cheers bud!
Great ideas, really enjoyed, thanks for sharing.
Thank you. I use fender washers on the toggle clamps, use 2 for each clamp mounted on the nuts, way faster for adjustment!
Thanks for your video! Awesome ideas!
Very good tips. Your video is well presented. Take it from an experienced pro.
I like your creativity!
Nicely done!
awesome video with great information! Would love to hear about the table build and making the dog holes! Thanks for sharing!
Workshop at The Gardens thanks man! Could be a good idea for a video!
These are fantastic!
Very clever thanks for posting. I like and Subed
Great video buddy really enjoyed it
Woah, that rope one is new to me. Very rad 👌
Thanks for making this great video! I've already shared with friends
rootboards thanks so much!
Best video I've seen lately. THANKS
This is one of the best videos for DIY dog hole accessories.! These are perfect. Exactly what I was looking for! For the conduit holdfats to work properly, what is the recommened thickness of the bench top ?
I cant beleive im just seeing this now....great video!
GREAT DEMO THANK YOU
Nice PBR shirt man!
Super useful tips.thanks.
Good stuff! Thanks.
right to the point and great tips!

Top tips on using dog holes. I am assuming you used metal conduit for your hold fasts. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Glad I found your channel. I really like practical things here, great content. I wonder if you could say the wall diameter of the conduit for those holdfasts? Now that this vid is a year old, have you had any problems with the conduit bending or deforming at stress points?
Thanks for taking the time to keep us posted on what you're up to!
The very best dang doghole vid I've seen.
Some good ideas mate, UK carpenter
Wow man. Fantastic

Awsome video Bro
Brilliant, subbed!
Some good ideas here. Thanks.
Most excellent, thank you
Very Creative! Will 3/4" dogs work in a 20mm hole?
how do you attach the conduit to the blocks of wood? these are all awesome ideas!
WOULD BE NICE TO SEE HOW YOU MADE THE COAT HANGER DOG CLAMPS ???????
Off subject but what apron are you wearing and how do you like it(comfort- pocket layout)? In the marked for one and like looks of yours. Great video!!
Great video
Excellent ideas
Some good tips. How do you like your worm drive mitre saw?
It’s ridiculously loud and dust collection is horrible but for an outside job site saw it’s awesome
VERY NICE!
Awesome video! For the hold down clamps around 01:50, how do you attach the conduit to that wood base under the clamp?
Very Helpful
do you have 20mm or 3/4 inch dogholes for the conduit to fit? I'm going to start drilling my dogholes but am torn as to which size to drill - 20mm of 3/4 inch! I'd rather be able to build DYI stuff like you did using conduit

lol that's love right there!
why did you use conduit that was so long on the toggle accessory?
Genius.
Well done...
How far apart are your dog holes ? Looks like 3/4” holes. Is that correct ?
What size holes in table top
Please add your other social media links in the description so we can find you elsewhere
bleh spent twenty minutes trying to find this video again.
Thanks.
Damn dude, you're bench racks really bad
