I am starting to ruminate on my bench design and would like to know the clearance under the bench required by a holdfast. I know this has a lot to do with how thick the material its holding. The reason this is a concern is I desire a shaker style bench but will need to allow clearance between the bottom of the top and the cabinet storage below.
My top, which I already have, is 2.25" thick maple. Maybe a holdfast will not even grip in a top that thick.
Thanks for the help.
