Summary

After many iterations and different design aproaches i finally found a working one Screw side Clamp mechanism. It clamps and pulls the workpiece down.

Slide it to the workpiece, hold it against it and tighten the screw about 0,5-0,75 turns when you feel the screw interacts.

The clamping surface 1° tilted.
Distance to table 5/15mm.

Printing Instruction:
Print in PLA, 100% Infill. "Clamp" on side and the "fixed side" on the base.

1x M6 Countersunk bolt per part.

There are 2 Versions: In one of them the screw is tilted a little bit to optimize the clamping the force. For this one the t-nut has to be able to be tilted like that. If it has not enough play print the "straight" ones.

"low" Version=Zero gap to the table
