With all my better clamps busy in a complicated glue-up, I had to relegate to whatever I could find to clamp a few boards together for cross-cutting. Some old clamps I have do only have metallic jaws, which keep circular marks in the wood. I made this quick design to have something I could insert between the jaw and the board to prevent that. The dimension of the bottom plate is 50 mm, the top is 25 mm. Naturally, this design will lend itself to scaling quite readily.

The model is printed in PETG. I kept the default 15-% infill to make the print faster, but I would agree more infill would provide in more sturdiness and make things even better.
