If you are a carver who likes to hog off wood or texture and paint a carving with a "hands-off" approach, Jerry-Rig is a tool that will meet your toughest standards and take the stresses and strains off your body.

This new product has two key components:  a clamp and a work holder.  Ruggedly build from aluminum castings, Jerry Rig is available with a standard positioner or two different styles of vises for holding the carving.  The work holder can be mounted on the clamp in two positions:  horizontally so that you work in a sitting position or vertically to allow you to carve standing up.  Another feature is that the workholder - without the clamp - can be mounted permanently to a table.  One optional accessory, a two-jaw vise opens to nine inches and has removable and reversible jaws covered in Neoprene to cushion the carving.  Ergonomically designed, the work holder has a quick disconnect mechanism and indexed clamping lever that, when released, allows you to move the work 360 degrees in any direction and lock it in that position.  Access to a carving is unlimited without the need to disassemble, and the robust construction keeps the work in place even when you deliver the blows of mallet against chisels and gouges.

Another feature is the ease with which the carving is removed from the fixture.  When the clamping lever is released, the work, which is mounted on the positioner plate or vise, slides out of the head.  Another mounted carving is easily inserted.
