Work hold down

[gorbo]

Well after much research and advice I have gone for 6mm nut inserts on my new bed and I must say I am very pleased so far,
how long these will last is another story, inserts from Screwfix £2 for 50, MDF board £4 so not a great capital outlay, if it all goes tits up

I will use clamps along with DST for a firm job

If you screwed them in from bottom it would stop them pulling out.!! That said the MDF would probably bulge anyway.

Flip the sheet over?

There will little vertical strain on these inserts only horizontal, I use the inserts to hold jigs to the bed which they appear to do very well
