I can see how those are great for securing the top, but how of they allow for wood movement?gthec said:Hey Mark, thanks. Figure 8 clips. Here's a detail shot of the clips.
This is only woodwork project no.2 so I'll have to defer to the experts. I will say that as the top expands and contracts, the clips will pivot. A lot of folks suggest this as a tried and true method so why not?Burb said:I can see how those are great for securing the top, but how of they allow for wood movement?
That does make sense. My guess is when initially installed, they were put at a slight angle to allow for movement either way. Works for me. Thanks for your info. I appreciate it.gthec said:This is only woodwork project no.2 so I'll have to defer to the experts. I will say that as the top expands and contracts, the clips will pivot.
