These ones cost $4.53 per packet, but after cutting them up that gives you enough ball bearing thingies to make 4 bench dogs. www.bunnings.com.au/taskmaster-43mm-zinc-double-ball-catch-2-pack_p0035496
That sounds like a good explanation, but I think we'd have to go back in time a few hundred years to ask the guy who invented the term. Language is funny, "dogging" used to mean hammering wedges into place to tightly close doors or hatches on a ship, now it means something VERY different. 😀
Man this is so cool, I watched the whole playlist
Hey, I'm glad you liked it! If you end up making one for yourself, I'd love to see a photo - you can e-mail me here:

@@TightwadWorkshop thanks
I saw 'improved dogs' and got excited, this video was very helpful but a mild disappointment from my initial expectation
My workbench top is only 1200x550mm. There's no way your dog would fit on that.
Serious question, why are the called dogs?
No idea. It's probably just an English-language name for them.
I imagine because they’re your workbench’s best friend.
