Blown away

By: Steven M (Nov, 2024)

These are fantastic. I expected to have to have to add depth to my 1.75 inch dog holes but these hold fasts work great as is. I scuffed up the steel and added leather and couldn’t be happier. Thanks Gramercy. I appreciate the price and quality and am excited to shop with you more.

They work!!!

By: Jim (Oct, 2024)

Over the years I've tried three types of cast holdfasts. Junk that didn't hold. I've used these for over a month, and they work great, and the price is just as great. I'll be ordering more. Thank you for a great product.

Exactly what you expect

By: Chuck (Aug, 2024)

You get exactly what you expect, a tool that is well made and attention was obviously taken for all the details. I got my pair in just under 2 days! Packaged well and came with a slight coating of oil, I assume from the manufacturing process. Just a quick wipe down with a little mineral spirits and I have a tool for live. The head is flat and square to the shank unlike the many cheaper ones on the jungle website. Well worth the money. Thanks Tools for Working Wood!

Gramercy Holdfast

By: ALFRED FLOYD (Jul, 2024)

I bought two of the holdfasts about 6 years ago. Roy Underhill had demonstrated a holdfast many times on his PBS show. When I saw the Gramercy Holdfast on the Classic Woodworking TV show I was sold. Since that time, the holdfasts have been used nearly every day. They're easy to use -- just a firm tap with a mallet holds the work in place. You do need 3/4" holes in the workbench surface but once that is done, the holdfasts become integrated into your workflow. I would buy these again for sure.

The best for bench top work

By: Don S. (Mar, 2024)

I own four of your holdfasts. My shop is 90% handwork for custom repairs and builds.Your holdfasts are an accessory to my bench that I cannot work without.Much faster than clamps.They also don't get in my way.

"Reach" Dimension Clarified

By: D Elliott (Feb, 2024)

Clearly the best option short of an anvil, forge & a heavy junk automotive coil spring for stock. The cast iron junk "you know where" billing itself as steel is a crime. The 6 1/2 inch "reach" specified is from center of post to the middle of the "thumb" holding the workpiece.

Wonderfull holdfasts!

By: Tom Wright (Nov, 2023)

I just bought these for the bench I just finished building. 3.5 inch maple top. They do need some roughing up along the shaft as described but hold firm with one whack. Release easily with a whack on the back. The foot is pitched towards the toe so they will definitely dent a soft or even hard wood surface without some protection. I had some 1/8” thick tanned leather around so I cut 2” x 9” strips and drilled a 3/4” hole in one end to slide up the shaft. They stay on the holdfasts where I store them in the holes I bored in the front bench legs. When I use them I just position the leather pads under the foot and pound away.

Excellent product. Worked straight out of the box with no need for scuffing the shafts. My maple benchtop is 1 3/4" thick.

I Like Them

By: Abc (Jun, 2023)

I really like these hold fasts. The shank is smooth so a file puts a bite on the tool to hold better in the workbench holes. I understand that a bit of rust works also (use wet salt). YouTube Wood by Wright just reviewed these hold fasts (2023.06). Recommends glueing a patch of leather on the flats to distribute the force and prevent indenting the wood.

Holdfasts

By: Steve (Feb, 2023)

holdfasts

By: Michael P. Peavey (Nov, 2022)

I've been attending the FWW on-line Dovetail Bootcamp. Bob Van Dyke uses hold fasts in the video. I built my bench 35 years ago. In the last 10 years I pondered hold fasts but could not get past the emotional hurdle of boring holed in my bench top. I ordered hold fasts from you earlier this month. Last week I put my bit brace to work boring two holes. I am very pleased with these ancient holding devices.

Great holdfasts

By: Patrick Howie (Jul, 2022)

I got these holdfasts on recommendation of Rex Krueger and Wood by Wright from YouTube, and they were right about the quality for money. The feel solid in the hand, and i have confidence when i whack them in with a mallet. They don’t seem to flex or bend like a cheaper product might. I’m a novice woodworker at best with my first real workbench, and these work great with a little sanding /roughing up in SYP about 3 inches thick. The length is perfect for most small parts I can see myself working on. A long option for big projects might be nice, but clamps, vises, or holding a bottom edge should work fine in those few instances where a part is too tall for these. Will get more as my skills and needs improve. Would recommend.

Doesn't work well in thicker tops

By: Ian (Jan, 2022)

These holdfasts did not hold at all in my 5 inch thick SYP benchtop, even after sanding around the shafts with 60 grit. I did some tests and found they work great in anything 1.5 to 3 inches thick. I used a tapered reamer from the underside of my bench to enlarge the bottom 2 inches of the holdfast holes. So even though the bench is 5 inches thick, the holdfast only sees 3 inches of it now and everything works perfectly. Some info on the product page detailing how to get these to work with thicker tops would have saved me a lot of headache.

Look slick, hold tight

By: J Sunnygard (Jan, 2022)

I bought these for a second workbench because they are less than $40 a pair. I was certain that the smooth, shiny metal could be too slick for my SYPine top. They also look like they could bend. Nope! Two or three good wallops with a maul and the don’t let go until you give them a good whack on the side and they release. For ease of use, I prefer them over my (much) more expensive cast holdfasts. More length would be a slight improvement.

Works great!!!

By: Sam (Aug, 2021)

I read about these holdfasts on the Popular Woodworking website and decided to give them a try. They're awesome!! They arrived within a week from ordering and they work beautifully. I have a 3" thick bench top and it holds down a 6"x6" table leg and anything smaller. Holds down your work piece very well with just a quick tap to hold it down or to release it.

Excellent Holdfast

By: Jason S. (Jul, 2021)

Gramercy Holdfasts are fantastic. As an engineer, I like they are wrought steel as this is tougher than any casting. They work like a charm in a 4" thick maple top, as long as you sand the shanks a bit (180grit is fine). If I find 2 holdfasts insufficient, I'll only buy these again.

Gramercy tools Holdfast

By: Todd Savaria (Jan, 2021)

These are holdfast are great. They are well made from steel rod...not cast. I used them right away on my bench and I'm impressed. They are also very nicely priced, a pair for less than $40 is a great deal. There are other holdfasts on the market, I've used a couple of the cast ones and these out perform those ten fold. Highly recommended.

Perfect

By: Max (Sep, 2020)

These work perfectly. They don't stick up off the bench very far like some others so I feel they are less in the way. My bench is only about 2-3/4" thick so at first they slipped a bit in the bench even after I cleaned them. But I took some sand paper and roughed up the shafts a bit, and they hold perfectly solid now.

Gramercy Tools holdfasts work in my small Sjoberg benchtop

By: William Shields (Sep, 2020)

I just received my order of a pair of Gramercy Tools' steel holdfasts and was anxious whether they would work in my small Sjoberg bench, the top of which is only about an inch thick. I opened the box and immediately went to my shop without bothering to degrease the holdfasts, and tapped them both onto some White oak stock on the bench to be planed. They worked just fine. I'll take the time to roughen their shafts as recommended, but they seem to hold and release with gentle taps of my coated, dead blow hammer just as they are. I'm impressed.

Holds STRONG

By: Matt (Mar, 2020)

They hold STRONG in my 4 inch thick plywood bench. Make sure you’re actually drilling a 3/4 inch hole. Use calipers to make sure because MANY 3/4 bits are not actually 3/4. I roughed up the hold fast with 80 grit on the whole shaft and then went over it with a file as well. Holds STRONG. I even use them on the face of the bench in the 3.25 inch skirt to use as a vise. When smooth they don’t hold so great but get them nice and roughed up and they’ll hold down a horse.

Excellent holdfast

By: Bob Jones (Feb, 2020)

Love these holdfasts! I've owned them for about eight months now. A solid whack sets them firmly. I was using a metal hammer for a while, but the sound was very loud, and the metal hammer dented the holdfasts. I discovered that a rubber hammer gets the job done just as securely, much more quietly, and with no denting or scratching of the holdfasts. My bench is 2-1/4" thick beech with 3/4" dog holes. Using these holdfasts has literally added a new "dimension" to my bench's usefulness. Excellent quality and excellent price (look around!).

Amazing for the price

By: Matt Luedtke (Jan, 2020)

At first they didn't stick, so I cleaned and sanded them. They still had trouble, so I took an angle grinder and knicked up the shafts. Now they are AMAZING. They work flawlessly and are many times cheaper than forged alternatives. Best value tool I have purchased.

Buy the pair

By: Bob Jones (Dec, 2019)

I bought them in mid 2019. I use these all the time for an impromptu set of shavings with a bench plane or a tenon true-up with the router plane. Faster than a vise. I have them hanging at arm’s length to grab at will. One good whack with a 12-oz hammer and they’re planted. I have a 2-1/8” thick birch bench with round 3/4” dog holes. These holdfasts work wonderfully. The extra dimension of work holding I’d wanted for years.

First clamp I reach for at the Bench

By: Porkbutter (Oct, 2019)

These holdfasts work wonderfully in my 3-3/4 inch thick bench. They didn't grab well at first until I figured out to strike them part way down the front slope instead of over the vertical shaft. This activates their spring action. Now the hold very firmly, fast and efficient. New favorite tool!

Functions perfectly!

By: Fernando (Sep, 2019)

I don't know why I didn't get these hold fast year's ago. I used to use the Veritas holdfast that was a pain to screw and unscrew. I tested the Gramercy hold fast right out the box in my 3" hard maple bench and boy did it stick--maybe sticks too good. I didn't have to scuff the shank either.

Mr.

By: Jim Lompe (Sep, 2019)

I received these yesterday and promptly tried them out. They work perfectly, just as expected. I tried it without sanding the shaft, just to see how it would do. Worked just fine, although I will sand the shaft as recommended. Using them couldn't be easier, hit the top to tighten it, hit the back to loosen it. I used a 24oz. Vaughn rubber mallet. They seem to made made very well with a great, smooth finish. These are going to last for many, many years.

No Replacement for the Real Thing!

By: Gabe (Jun, 2019)

I've tried multiple cheap amazon/Grizzly holdfasts but never could get any of them to bite. When they did bite, they sooner after snapped. The difference between those el-cheapo holdfasts and these are that most cheap ones are cast. Cast steel/iron is too brittle and won't bend well. Gramercy has made fantastic drawn steel holdfasts that work beautifully and are very reasonably priced. In my mind, there is no replacement for drawn steel holdfasts. 10/10 would buy again. The only caveat is you need to take sand the shafts HORIZONTALLY right out of the box or they won't bite well in some bench tops. ToolforWorkingWood actually has a great little write-up on how to accomplish this.

*Sigh* Pretty Good I Guess

By: Kevin (May, 2019)

I'm always sceptical about buying products everyone seems to be going on and on about. I think the hype often skews people's opinions and the cycle feeds itself. I heard about these holdfasts everywhere, from books to online videos, so, for such an economical price, I figured, why not? I bought a pair and set my expectations low so I wouldn't be consumed by the fervor and objectively look at these holdfasts on their merits. They are absolutely fantastic. I put them through their paces on my two and three quarter inch maple workbench and with the swing of my engineers hammer, they locked in place and refused to budge. Well done Gramercy.

Mr.

By: David Conant (May, 2019)

I just built the bench crafted roubo workbench and dropped in the holdfasts for their 1st use. No matter how I hit them, I could not get them to grip. Tehen I cleaned the shaft with degreaser and sanded them with 120 sand paper. They then held beautifully. I was contemplating a return up until then. I just ordered a 2nd pair and saw the small note about sanding the shaft.. seems that would be a common problem unless you caught the note. Anyway, I love them!

Great holdfasts, unbelievable price

By: Dan (Nov, 2018)

I have been using a pair for about a year and a half now, and have no complaints. For what it's worth, I've been using them on a bench made entirely out of softwood 2 x 12s. It took me three or four whacks to find the right amount of force to use, but since then no problem holding, and so far, no sign that they're wearing away the holes. I did a lot of research before buying, and as far as I can tell there are no other holdfasts anywhere near this price, and of the 3/4 inch diameter holdfasts out there, I'm not aware of any that hold better.

By: david mize (Jun, 2018)

Got a pair of your holdfasts a few months ago & am more than pleased...now have 3/4" holes drilled in every work table in shop...being extruded like wire instead of being cast makes a big difference in these clamps-can't imagine these things could EVER fail! Tip: leather pads carpet-taped to the faces of these marvelous tools is the capper...5 stars easy, now one of my favorite go-to tools.(Just one small thing: being a bit more rust-resistant would be nice)

Leagues beyond any Others in the price range

By: M. L (Mar, 2018)

I've had a pair of these holdfast for a while now an couldn't be more pleased with with their performance. Similarly priced cast iron holdfast are know to be brittle and snap, but not these. I've beat on them and they take it. They grip wonderfully and release easily with 1-2 mallet taps. I've since installed a 2 1/2" thick apron on the front of my workbench and use a pair of them horizontally in the same manner you would use a vise. The same addition was made at one end to use with a wooden cleat like a tail vice with a row of dogs. They shipped quick, I ordered very late on a Monday evening and received them Saturday. From NY to CA without excessive shipping charges in less than a week. Work holding is a very very important factor in efficient woodworking, and if you don't have a pair of these, your missing out. Get them! they will improve your workflow and allow for quick and secure clamping methods for any type of work. I only wished I had ordered them years ago.

Holds even in softwoods

By: Tracy (Jan, 2018)

I bought a pair of these right after building my first "real" workbench. Built for utility, it's a torsion box with 3/4" baltic birch for the top, ribs made from construction lumber, and 3/8" plywood for the bottom skin. I was having some problems with the holdfasts not wanting to grab initially but once I relieved the dog holes on the bottom of the bench by just chamfering away the 3/8" plywood surrounding the holes, they would not let go. Even in the piece of hemlock (which practically dents when you breathe on it) that I used for the row of through holes running the length of the bench. I was both relieved and impressed when I gave it a few good taps, mainly letting the weight of my mallet do the work, and it held onto the scrap of wood I tested them on with a crazy amount of force. I have no qualms about holding my work with them for operations with a handheld router, if that tells you anything.

Holdfast not holding in thick bench top

By: Richard (Jan, 2018)

Bought two of the Gramercy hold fasts last week. Got them promptly and took them to my work bench. Stuck them in my 3/4 inch dog hole and whacked it on top... nothing. It would not hold anything. Bench top is 3 inches thick. Added another 1 1/2 block below the dog hole making a total of 4 1/2 inches...still nothing. Why will these hold fast not do anything? What am I doing wrong?

Excellent Holdfasts.

By: Jake (Jan, 2018)

These holdfasts are exactly what you expect: American made and functional! Extremely satisfied with my purchase, as some may have said, scuff the stem perpendicular to its long axis (NOT up and down it, AROUND it) to make sure they have plenty of grip. Top notch.

Look great but need a bit of work before they hold

By: Kevin (Nov, 2017)

Like another reviewer I had a hard time (mentally) drilling holes into the top of my handmade 5" thick bench. I was not able to get them to hold anything no matter how hard I hit them. Moved to my apron board 1 3/4" thick and same problem. After some research online and after re-reading this page a second time I noticed the very fine print recommending I rough up the shaft with sandpaper. I will try that and try decreasing enlarging the bottom 2" of the bench top holes by drilling underneath. Assuming this works - please make the "Note" on the product page a little bit larger.

Impressive Holdfasts - Great pProduct

By: Craig Kunce (Jul, 2017)

Just received these and they work exceptionally well. I have a homemade workbench, 3.5" thick top and they hold everything down. Just a gentle tap of my mallet locks them down and releases them. I also have holes in the front of my workbench to hold wood vertically. The steel they are made from "springs" a little to increase the grip. If you watch closely on Roy's bench (on The Woodright's Shop) you'll see he uses these too. That's a solid testimonial. Thanks for investing the R&D, time and patent money to bring this product back to life. Love that they are American made too.

Holdfasts by Gramercy Tools

By: BlueStone (Jul, 2017)

Great product. Tried a cast iron set and promptly returned them. These are perfect and really hold. Don't buy just one (unless your workpieces are pretty short); your work can pivot. If you use a block of scrap as shown to avoid marring make sure its softer than the wood you're holding down. I contact cemented rawhide on the pads---works great and holds a bit sooner with increased friction. Use these twice and you'll be using them every day thereafter. One of my most satisfying tool purchases ever. Will last a lifetime if they don't grow legs.Five stars!

A great first time experience!

By: Scott Smith (Jun, 2017)

Being new to woodworking, I have never had the opportunity to use Holdfasts of any brand. I did a lot of reading about cheap made, but expensive import cast iron holdfasts that were breaking, not holding, etc. I saw these were made in the USA and all the great reviews so I gave it a shot. I was not disappointed! Man, these things hold great! I must add, even though the description above says 1 3/4" minimum thickness for your table, they work absolutely perfect in my 1 1/2" butcher block table top.

A bargain

By: Michael Edelman (Apr, 2017)

Mine just arrived (I bought a pair), and as soon as I unpacked them I ran down to the basement to try them out. A light tap from my bench mallet locks them in tightly enough to li the bench,and another tapmreleases them. At the price they're asking they're one of the great bargains in woodworking tools. Many thanks to Christopher Schwarz for pointing me to them.

By: Art (Feb, 2017)

I aspire to be good woodworker, but got started late in life with much to learn. I'm a huge fan of anything related to a clamp...as it represents that extra hand you always need.

ALERT...Best Value-Uber High Quality

By: John (Jan, 2017)

These are simply the best deal going in "non-toy" holdfasts. Excellent build quality, and work well. I was leery because my benches have 5" thick tops. I scuffed the shafts on these with 120 grit and they worked...But once I counter bored the dog holes for these from the bottom, they are just wonderful. Highly recommended.

These holdfasts are excellent quality at a great price. These are far superior to of the cheap, cast, made over seas hold fast I've been going through for years. These will last for ever. Highly recommend

Great Quality at a Fantastic Price

By: Joe S (Aug, 2016)

These are absolutely the best hold downs I have owned. After roughing them up just a bit with 100 grit sandpaper they held the work very well. They released with a slight tap. These are a no-brainer to purchase - highly recommend!

What a bargain!!

By: Rex (Aug, 2016)

Shipped with a thin coat of oil, no annoying lacquer to remove. A little sanding is all that is needed to get them ready. Works like a dream in 3 in bench top and 3 1/2 in leg.

Amazing quality and value

By: Andre Prudhomme (Jul, 2016)

(Adding to the chorus of positive reviews here) These are as good or better than any other holdfast I've tired, including expensive hand forged ones. Tools For Working Wood clearly landed on a great manufacturing process and is able to produce a superior tool at an extremely low price.

This hold fast works like a charm. I tried some cheap "made in China" hold fasts that are now in the trash. ToolsForWoodworking sent these immediately; I had them the next day. Packaging was adequate. These are full-sized and hold well, but release well. I can't imagine not owning a pair of these.

Works, well worth it

By: Mike S (May, 2016)

Just received my 2 today. Cleaned them off, roughed them up with some scrap 60 grit sandpaper, and tried them out. The workbench top is made from joined 4x10 sections, so it is 3.5" thick. Dropped in the holdfast on a piece of wood, gave it a whack and it held. Ultimate test: with it in place I CAN LIFT THE ENTIRE 150+ POUND WORKBENCH! To release I have to pull slightly up on the holdfast and give it a tap. I have tried the cast ones that cost more than these, they are worthless. So far 110% happy. =)

Absolutely great

By: Jugnu Jethi (Mar, 2016)

These hold fasts are amazing. Ordered two pairs of these after reading many encouraging reviews. My bench top is about 3in thick and drilled a 3/4 in hole to accommodate the hold fasts. Initially it refuses to hold. But sanding in a circular motion around the stem with 80 grit sand paper fixed the issue. These hold fasts hold absolutely great.

Superb

By: George Newton (Feb, 2016)

I purchased a pair of these holdfasts a couple of years ago and liked them so much I ordered a second pair. I have a 3.5 inch thick bench top, and I did find it helpful to roughen up the shafts a bit with course sandpaper to improve the grip of the shaft on the bench. I would never want to be without these holdfasts.

Gramercy Holdfast

By: Chucky C (Atlanta) (Feb, 2016)

Just received the single copy of the fabulous addition to my shop and used it tonight after drilling two 3/4inch holes in my bench. Worked like a charm as I have been using a Kreg adjustable clamp which couldn't do the job. Damn Yankees this almost makes up for the Braves losses in the World Series '96 and '99 Drat can't hate a company that makes such wonderful tool--even have your dovetail saw- fabulous

My regret

By: Jamey (Feb, 2016)

I recently finished my roubo style bench out of 2 11x4 ash slabs. After drilling the holes for the blue, Taiwan holdfasts I got from amazon I found myself near tears. Having never used one before I wasn't sure what I'd do with 7 new holds in the top of my bench as these did not hold squat. I found Gramercy holdfasts and one tap is all it took, faith restored. Not to forget how wonderful Sean and tools for woodworking are to deal with.

Trading Up To Forged Holdfasts? Hog Wash!

By: Jim Waldron (Jan, 2016)

I just saw some "world famous" blogger who has a set of the Gramercy holdfasts and is planning to "upgrade" to forged versions. Based on my experience, I suspect he will regret that decision as a waste of his money for no gain. And if he increases the size of his bench holes, he won't be able to go back very easily. And with the larger diameter (and often longer tails) of most forged holdfasts, he'll be straining his back every time he has to pick one up. If you're a hobby woodworker, save the money to get a better saw. If you're a pro, save the money for your bottom line. These work so well, there's no benefit to looking elsewhere.

Constantly reaching for the pair that I bought several months ago. I have a 2" thick bench top and they work perfectly. On softer woods, I use an extra piece of wood to prevent marring. They hold tight and release quickly once you get the knack for the right amount of force to use. Buy a pair now! you won't regret it.

My Gramercy Hold Fasts arrived so quickly, I've not had a chance to drill out the holes I'm adding to the elevated Moxon vise I'm building. The product is both simple and extremely well made. Any cast iron hold fast doesn't stand a chance up against the Gramercy products. Cast iron cannot take the beating without cracking and forged hold fasts were beyond my budget. I'm pleased I found these beauties!

Gramercy holdfasts

By: Joe Shelton (Mar, 2015)

Recently added two of Joel's holdfasts to my bench, because I wasn't pleased with the cast holdfasts I've used for a long time. The Gramercy holdfast is excellent, which is not a surprise. The surprise is that, by a simple 'workaround', it also works beautifully in my Sjoberg bench, which has 1" holes. To do this, I cut 3/8" lengths of plastic tubing that has an outside diameter of 1". This short 'bushing' goes into the bench's hole, and then the holdfast is inserted. Works great, and my bench is not damaged by an ill-fitted shaft. Thanks, Joel! Joe

Great service...great product!

By: Greg M. - Cleveland, Ohio (Dec, 2014)

Having taken the last year building my workbench, I promised myself that upon completion my reward would be to purchase a set of these holdfasts. Well, the workbench is done and the order was placed on Cyber Monday! The holdfasts arrived at my doorstep by the time I arrived home from work Wednesday and I took little time unboxing them. It was nice to see a handwritten "Thank You" note jotted on the invoice and it put a smile on my face when I read MADE IN THE U.S.A. stamped on the side of this well-made product. After one whack of the mallet I knew these were quality! They held the stock down securely and released it just as easily with a few firm taps to the side stem. However, even with the lightning fast delivery, product that worked perfectly, professional and personal A-1 Customer Service...would you believe both of the holdfasts came to me bent!!! (bad joke!)-It's really nice to see company's like Tools For Working Wood are still out there.

I Should Have Bought These Sooner

By: Jon Not John (Aug, 2014)

After years of clamping projects to my bench, I finally pulled the trigger on two of these. What a revelation! These fit perfectly in a 3/4 inch dog hole and tenaciously hold onto whatever needs holding! My bench top is 2 1/2 inch thick southern yellow pine (though I live the land of Douglas Fir) and these work wonderfully. Don't think twice about purchasing a set; you will love the quick, simple, and amazing holding power.

By: Craig Miller (Aug, 2014)

I purchased two of these holdfasts about a month ago and I absolutely love them. My bench top is 3 1/2" thick and I have no problem getting them to hold or removing them. Prior to purchasing these I was clamping everything to my workbench which took an exorbitant amount of time, now it takes just a couple of seconds to clamp wood to the bench. Great job Gramercy.

Holdfast Variation

By: michael spexarth (May, 2014)

Best holdown going. Since you have gone to this effort, would it be possible to simply extend the leg, machine flat the palm of the arm, and make a handscrew fitting similar to a standard pipe clamp? Thus we would have a good 24" or so handy shop clamp, as well as a holdown.

Smokin' good holdfast

By: John Passacantando (Mar, 2014)

Bought two of these holdfasts after my second cheap cast one broke. These are terrific. Ancient design but nothing in my shop holds like these. Recommended on the Chris Schwarz Xmas list. I had to modify my bench as Gramercy recommends in the video, if your bench top is thicker than three inches, you have to widen the hole the holdfast goes into from underneath up to the 3 inch depth. Easily done with a foster bit and a piece of 3/4" dowel to center the bit. Will be back for more Gramercy tools when needed.

Hold Everything. Well.

By: Brad White (Feb, 2014)

Having searched for a classic hold-fast (and going through at least one dramatic cast hold-fast failure), I was about to purchase a ductile iron model. I then stumbled upon the Gramercy hold-fasts and in that process, discovered TFWW itself as a bargain. I ordered a pair, the price could not be resisted. (These I use for the usual mortising functions, to hold dead-stops for planing and to hold down jig assemblies. Nothing exotic.) At first, they came loose without much side pressure. Re-seating did not make much difference. But then I read some of these comments and, indeed, the stems do need to be scuffed up a bit. I used a 60x sanding disk I had lying around, others said 80 grit, I suppose not enough difference. It did the trick! The work conventionally, tap-down to tighten, back-tap to release, fast and easy. The right amount of "spring" too, without fear. A spare set of over-sized old holes at the back of the bench make for handy storage in my case. As one refinement, I used Barge Cement (contact cement) to glue a pad of leather to the seating face to forestall marring. That or a block of wood will suffice, but I wanted to try something "attached". Seems to work just fine but time will tell. I recommend these highly, for performance, strength, looks and price, all in one package.

Can't beat them

By: Guy Lautard (Dec, 2013)

My current benchtop is a 7-1/2' length of MicroLam, 1-3/4" thick. I drilled 3/4" holes in it for threaded rods for big hold-down fingers I made from 2x4's. They work, but the Gramercy Tools Holdfasts are faster. Can't beat the price, and they'll last several lifetimes. I bought 4. Got to make a mallet for whackin' 'em, now.

I own this product.

By: Gerald (Nov, 2013)

I have designed and built my own very basic Roubo-style bench. Money, time, skill and tools were all in short supply so I built the whole thing out of construction grade 2X6 studs using only 90 deg cuts and an old, dull D12 saw. The top is 5 1/2 inches thick. I do not have the money right now to buy any kind of decent vise so I thought I'd use holdfasts on the side in addition to the top. I am using the holdfasts from Gramercy and drilled nine 3/4 holes 10 inches deep alongside of the top. The problem is that the holdfasts will not clamp down to the side no matter how hard or at what angle I strike them. I've used them successfully in my sawbenches that are built out of 2X4s. One good whack with the mallet on top sets it tight, another whack on the side and a pull up frees it. The only thing I can think is that the 3/4 inch (slightly larger) holes don't allow the holdfast shaft to angle out-of-square enough to create enough torque or whatever. Otherwise they're great and well worth the money. Any advice or information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

I've had these Gramercy holdfasts for a couple of years now and just wanted to let you and others know how I love using them. So much faster and easier than other methods of clamping to the top of my workbench. Although I'm recommending users glue a piece of leather on the contact point to avoiding marring your wood. I haven't been able to find any other holdfasts of this quality any where near this price. Definitely one of the best values in my wood shop !

By: Tom Erbaugh (Mar, 2013)

Like all the other reviewers say, these hold great! Just pay attention to the instructions about the holes and the suggestion of using a leather patch. What REALLY impresses me is that you, Joel, figured out what was the essential feature of holdfasts, and then found a manufacturer to make them to that specification in the USA for the price you sell them for. Outstanding!!

Mr.

By: Brander "Badger" Roullett (Mar, 2013)

These are great to have in the shop, I use them quite a bit for work holding. I use them on my bench top which is 2x12 construction grade doug fir, with a 3/4" hole drilled where appropriate. It works just fine, and holds like the dickens. You'll want to have a beefy wooden mallet for whacking the back of the holdfast to get it loose, and for setting it. I find that having some small scraps of pine to rest on my work before whacking really helps with my thinner bench top, as it elevates the head a little. Recommended.

I have four of these holdfasts. My bench's top is 3" thick. They are simply amazing. Not only do these work Perfectly, but if you have never used holdfasts, you owe it to yourself to give them a try. And you won't find a more economical set to try the process with. If you do hand work, these will very simply speed up your work, by offering a consistent and rigid way of holding your work. I can't speak highly enough of them.
