Abstract: An adjustable workpiece securing device is disclosed for securing a workpiece to a support while performing one or more machining operations thereon. The device incorporates a cam assembly for application of a force to the displaceable end of a substantially immovable bar to secure the workpiece to its underlying support. The construction of the device to include non-movable elements in those portions which effect the securing of the workpiece, results in the precision alignment of the workpiece with respect to a machine cutting element that can be effectively maintained during the machining operation.
