As I was browsing www.aroundhthewoods.com this morning for inspiration, I went

Clicked on the "cutting round objects on the band saw" or whatever, expecting
yet another jig to build..

Saw a picture of a branch with a bar clamp on it, keeping the limb form
rotating.... Hmmmmm..

What a simple but effective solution to a common problem!


For larger logs that are hard to clamp, I put a short board across the
end and fasten it temporarily with two screws.

I've done a little of that, but since I took off the shop-built table, my 14"
table runs out of room for much more than a clamp to rest on..
