I need help

[Ron Evers]

I have got back into woodworking after none for five years. I am building a table (seen below) & need to buy the metal clips used to fasten the top to the rails. I do not know the proper name for these clips so am unable to search for a source. Anybody know what they are called?


Body glue up.

The needed clips look like this. Screwed into the top & set into a kerf in the top rail.

In the Rocker catalog they are called, (oddly enough) "table clips".

No way. They have zero imagination, these Rocker guys.

Thanks for that. I will now search for a local supplier.

I found them as Table Top Clamps @ Lee Valley where I had an outstanding order for a pair of full extension drawer glides for this table. I called them & got the clamps added to my order.

tables looking good already!

Thanks. The table is being constructed of Black Cherry.
