Landrum Haddix's Column Brace

Landrum Haddix wrote, "I know this has been done before, but check out my Taig column brace. I'm tired of adjusting the column before and after I use anything with much side force, like a boring head, fly cutter, or shell mill. I had an end mill get 'sucked' into a part and before it broke it knocked the column over went for China into the part and finally threw it across the room. All I did was try to walk across the hall to use the bathroom and boom. Moral: nothing fails when your hand is over E-stop."
