Okay you have your lump of metal, the internal and external cuts are all coded...

... and I think this is the BIG question...

...How do YOU fix the metal to the bed to get maximum access?

Bit at a time with a vice?
Bolts?
Tabs you saw off afterwards?
Shuffle your clamps half way through?
Glue?
Something obvious that I haven't tried?
Something really sneaky?

I know what I do, but what do you do? :naughty:
