Veritas Miniature Hold-Down

The Veritas miniature hold-down secures small workpieces vertically at 1:3 scale, which suits tasks like cleaning up dovetails or chopping mortises where a full-size clamp would get in the way.

The 3" post is sized for a 17/64" dog hole, matching the spacing used across the Veritas miniature bench accessories.

Turning the brass knob lets you dial in exactly the pressure the workpiece needs, up to the tool's 1" clamping capacity.

The arm is cast steel, kept low-profile so the clamping end stays clear and accessible from every side of the work.

Not necessarily. It's built to 1:3 scale for small workpieces and miniature bench setups, so it's meant to complement rather than replace a full-size hold-down on regular-sized work.
