Reading the thread about compound sliding mitre saws, Roger

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?

If you can't find that, rather than nuts and bolts, I've used prong-tees
and wing-bolts (wing-screws/thumb-screws) to fasten things to my
workmate. The prong tees stay attached, and the wing bolts don't take
long to twiddle in and tighten.

I got some of them from here

I think.

That is a possibility. :-)

Once again thanks for every ones help.
