Title: Tried to save money
Product review: How hard could it be to design a hold down. I use t track hold downs for home cnc so when a workpiece slips while I'm routing, it causes alot of grief. These hold downs will allow slippage.Heres the problem:1 cheap plastic knobs, simply encase a nut that fits the bolt. the knob will strip.2 holddown is metal, which is strong enough- but again with vibration it will slip while holding down a piece of wood. Better would be to have a rubber coating on the metal tip.3 there is a slim washer between the knob and the holddown-- doesn't prevent the hold down from slipping when tightened on a workpiece.4 bolt- eh. (also it is an odd size with a finer thread that will not fit other better made knobs)So, these ended up in my box of other cheap solutions that did not work out.Bought the woodpeck holddowns, much better thought out, not much more expensive.
