How to Keep Wood from Slipping When Belt Sanding
When it comes to using certain power tools, like a belt sander or a router, it's crucial that the work piece is held firmly in position.
Sometimes, clamps that would hold a work piece secure simply get in the way of the tools.

The wood you are sanding will now stay firmly in place.
