Abstract

An apparatus (100), including: a lower support structure (102) configured to support a bottom side of a board disposed thereon, wherein the board can be any one of a variety of various sized boards; and an adjustable clamp head (104) including a resilient structure (122) that defines a recess (124) configured to capture therein a top side of the board and thereby hold the board between the clamp head and the lower support structure when the clamp head is lowered onto the top side of the board. The resilient structure is configured to narrow the recess when the clamp head is lowered against a resilience of the resilient structure onto a relatively thin board sized to contact the resilient structure at an apex (130) of the recess without fully filling an opening (132) of the recess.
