Seeing Brad's go-bar deck bars bent, reminded me of the video series that I posted of a German builder and his clamps that mount on the bench top. I found that they are Festool.

But that isn't what this is about. He also had adjustable go bars. No bending. As the top, or back bends to shape, you just extend them to keep the pressure even.

Looking for them just now I couldn't find German ones, but I saw a different version by Pegasus guitars: I know he is on here.

And I found one more like the German ones I saw on a down-under forum:

Food for thought.
