Tricks of the Trade Compiled by Paul Anthony Illustrations by Matt Bantly Wedged Frame Clamping Retainers can be made from 1x2 stock THE WINNER: Clamping with wedges is a trick that's been around a long time, and it can be a particularly great way to clamp mitered frames. However, most of the miter-clamping fixtures I've seen in my many years of woodworking are complicated to make and cumbersome to use. Here is my version of a simple frame-clamping jig that I have been using for many years. Built from scrap materials, this type of jig can be custom-made to suit any frame, whether square, rectangular or polygonal. Basically, the jig consists of scrap-wood retainers fixed to a piece of flat plywood or other panel, with the workpiece wedged between the retainers, using shims as shown. The retainers can be made from 1 x2 stock or whatever you have on hand that suits your frame. Cedar shake shim s are commonly available at building-supply centers. In the case of a square frame, only one retainer corner needs to be truly square, as shims will compensate at the other corners. Stop the retainers short of the frame corners if you want access to reinforce the joints with nails or other fasteners. Use waxed paper or Base Use common cedar shims from a building-supply center Base brown painter's tape at the frame corners to protect the jig against glue squeeze-out.
