ABSTRACT:
A toe clamp for a milling machine which comprises a T-nut slidable along an inverted T-shaped groove in the table top. A clamping screw is received in an inclined threaded bore in the T-nut for securing the nut in the groove. A work engaging member has a bore for receiving a shoulder bolt and the T-nut has a second threaded bore inclined at the same angle as the first threaded bore and receiving the threaded portion of the shoulder bolt. The work engaging member has a grooved edge for engaging with the edge of the work piece and the inclined shoulder bolt when tightened will force this grooved edge against the workpiece edge in an inwardly and downwardly direction for gripping it. The inclined clamping screw is received in a slot in the work engaging member to prevent it from rotating about the shoulder bolt.
