Re: Ideas For Holding Copper Water Pipe Fitting
|
I have a ?¡± thick plate full of threaded holes. I remove the moveable jay to install it on the saw, and it is right up next to the blade. I use the workholding clamps for my mill,
and sometimes make my own, to hold down odd shapes & small pieces.
If I don¡¯t have a threaded hole in the right place to hold something down. I just drill & tap another one.

I cannot picture why just using the vertical table and holding the fitting in your hand or with vice grips is not a quick easy way
to make your cut especially as it doesn't need to be exact.
If you insist that you have to use horizontal just cut a block of wood with the desired angle and drill a hole to put the fitting in
possible holding with a screw. You can clamp the block of wood in the vice set at the angle you want.

I have a similar setup, but used 3/4" PVC tubing. It was really easy to get the angles I needed. Another approach, if you have the space,
is to use double 90 degree fittings and align them for whatever angle you need.
