In this photo is another slip nut used for a thru hole clamping device. It has 2 levers to allow the slip. I still need to finish this project and probably will make several different 'smart nuts' to see which works best!

It works really good and can clamp for light easy to turn or hard for no slip. I might make a couple of smaller vices using this method to help hold some of the castings while hand finishing and fitting!

It requires the base of the nut to be large enough to stand up-right in order for the upper threads to engage. Now I getting tooo technical for my brain.
