Veritas Small Stainless-Steel Parf Dogs, 10mm

Veritas small stainless-steel Parf dogs, 10 mm tall.

Named after their designer, Peter Parfitt, Parf dogs let you take advantage of the grid of the Festool MFT/3 multifunction table to set up accurate, repeatable cuts. Using a pair of small dogs to position the workpiece and a pair of tall Parf dogs to position the fence on top of it, you can easily achieve parallel or square cuts. Veritas worked with Parfitt to improve the design. Machined from stainless steel, the dogs have a 19.90 mm post that fits snugly in the 20 mm holes of the MFT/3, and are supported by a collar 25 mm in diameter and 10 mm tall for stability. Each dog has a threaded hole so it can be fastened from below with an MFT clamping knob (not included) or the inexpensive Veritas star-shaped knob (sold separately).

Aside from its use as a low-profile stop, the small dog can be set flush into a bench top or jig piece to use its M8 threaded through hole as an anchor point; the collar size lets you easily make a recess for it with a standard 25 mm bit.
