ABSTRACT:
A drill press clamp having a collar which may be removably and adjustably mounted on the column of a drill press. A first arm is pivotally connected to the collar at a first end, with the second free end of the first arm pivotally mounting a second arm at a first end of the second arm. The free second end of the second arm includes a screw extending therethrough which may be employed as a clamp to secure a work piece between the drill press table and the second end of the second arm. The pivotal arrangement of the arms allows the clamp at the end thereof to be located at any point above the table. Additionally, the collar may be located at different positions along the column, to allow for work pieces of different sizes. The device may be adapted for use on a standard work table, without a drill press. The present invention also includes the use of clamp blocks having various contours cut therein. These contours may correspond to common profiles of work pieces, such that the block may be interposed between the clamp on the second arm and the work piece on the table.
