Comments:

I can't remember where I got this. Hand wheels adjust the rails and the foot pedal put the major squeeze on. Very powerful. Useful for sash as well. Has an iron clamp which puts the squeeze on the muntins when necessary. Every woodworker should have one of these. Large dogs are for doors. Usually double up for bottom rails. Lighter dogs in the rack for blinds or sash.
