Sorry if this is a duplicate post. I thought I'd just posted this but I can't find it anywhere.
OK, has anyone here ever attempted to make their own Bosch router clamp? I have the Shark which has the Bosch Colt and the MDF table. My router clamp has broken and at $35.00 on the Nextwave website I don't think I want to pay that only to get yet another plastic clamp that's going to break yet again.

Re: Bosch router clamp
I second the clamps from Dixie Billet. He made me one for my big Porter Cable router on my Shark HD.
It is steady as a rock. I just had him make another with a 6" extension so that I can make box joints
off the edge of the table. Looking to try that out this weekend.
Here is their email: business@dixiebillet.com
Cheers!

Re: Bosch router clamp
Hey thanks guys. I was hoping someone had jumped on this project. Someone with a CNC laser setup could make a small fortune right here just on router clamps. Thanks for nothing Nextwave.
Anyway, I emailed the folks at Dixie Billet to see if they are still making them and how much. I thank you guys for your responses.

Re: Bosch router clamp
Hello all,
To update the topic, yes Sam Clark still makes these, he's making one right now for me. If you need one the business@dixiebillet.com is still a good contact address. He accepts paypal payments as well.
Good luck!
Jim

It is easier to destroy than it is to create, just look at my scrap pile.
