[TheForge] Holdfast Thanks

[Bob Smolen]

I use a similar holdfast for woodworking. When I take the board out from 
under the holdfast and forget to gently lower the holdfast to the bench, 
just the weight of it causes it to jam to the bench top. I cant pull the 
holdfast out without first hitting the back of it. I think the hole needs to 
be close to the diameter of the holdfast. If there is a lot of slop, more 
difficult to get a good hold.
