Not me but it looks very cleverly thought through on the video.


I did find it after I posted the original question - I might take a punt
for that price - and it is something that can go in the drawer rather
than be another tool lying around.

Better buy a set of 3 decent clamps now - at least they're universally
useful

I'll be interested in how flush the end result is (placement accuracy) -
all I have for a "flat" worksurface is this:

But to be fair, it's one of Keter's better products and is remarkably
useful as a general surface that packs away.


See my comments about cowls earlier. However this is where things like
the BJ win, since you use them to reference the slot position from the
finished surface - so you can even glue different thickness boards with
their final finished surface perfectly aligned.
