Reading the thread about compound sliding mitre saws, Roger mills

want mine to be mounted with nuts and bolts, but there are over
centre levers/fasteners that would allow quick fastening and
release. Anyone know where I can find some with about a 10 mm screw
thread? Or do I have to make my own?

Have a look here under vices, etc: http://www.axminster.co.uk

If you don't see exactly what you want you might get some ideas for
making your own. You can also use G-clamps or similar although not
strictly quick release.

Cic.

The feet of the mitre saw in question have sloping upper surfaces - so it's
very difficult clamp it firmly to a surface using G-clamps or similar. You
could screw it to a couple of strips of wood, and clamp *those* to a surface
with G-clamps or quick-release bar clamps.
