Holding your material in place

Another hold down solution
I bought some 2 inch Harbor Freight welding magnets for holding down the thin sheet metal. (shown here without water in the table for clarity) Use as many as you need to do the job. Just make sure they are not in your cutting path. Yes, they do attract that nasty cutting spray but they clean up easily. They also store nicely on the edge of the table.

Clever idea putting them under the material. I would have put them on top and flat and they’d likely get in the way of the head ️ I like your approach & will have to pick up a couple of packs next time I’m in the HF.
