Bad news is, I would have to buy this bench that comes with it..

Don't have the room for it, nor the $225 + Tax to buy it...

I just used bench dogs as well, usually clamping between two of them, until I had to make a loft railing that was 7'-8" long. Then the dogs on my 7' bench were woefully lacking. I had to pull one end of the bench out so that about a foot of the railing could extend past the bench. My bench sits in a kind of little nook or niche, which makes it difficult to work around the ends. This piece was secured with the crochet, leg vise, holdfast in the deadman, and a hand clamp. Worked pretty good. And that's a full-length shaving in the pic, that's always fun.

I have also used just a single bench dog as a stop on some of the bigger stuff, and that works pretty well most of the time. The little stuff skitters around tho. And now I have one of these to install. This project has made me understand and appreciate the value of a planing stop.
