I think those were made by a group called ToolImprovements, but I can't find a web presence for them anymore.

Toolnut.com used to carry them, you might want to give them a call and see if they have any stock left.

I have a few sets that look like that I bought a few years ago from Tool Improvements as well. I can't recall his name right now, but a very nice guy that answered questions quickly and was very helpful. He also made a product for the MFT called a slopstop. I do remember him posting on his website that other commitments were taking him away from making any more products for the near future. I did notice (google search for his website) that his website is down now, but he is selling the slopstop on Ebay....you might message him to see if he has any dogs left. I use 2 of these to secure my fence to the mft and got rid of the protractor thingy.....best move ever, never go out of square anymore...
 
The Gents name is Jon and you can email him at jonsilcocks911@gmail.com

I bought my MFT/3 with a Festool Plunge Saw and rail kit a few weeks ago and to help me set it up correctly and easily for the first time I purchased some of his kit:

4 large dogs, 8 small dogs and 2 rail dogs

They are all really tight in the bench and not only made my inital setup of the MTF/3 easy as pie it also makes setting up my cuts really fast and easy too, oh and I'm a total noob so if I can do it anyone can.

Stan, [member=3606]John2532[/member] is the John from Tool Improvements, I don's see him posting on the FOG any more but I think he still checks in here:

If you contact him and say "pretty please" he might make you up some. Great guy to deal with.

Thanks for the notice of the listing on eBay. I'd been wanting a pair and placed an order before the sold out this time.
