A workpiece clamp (20) for holding a workpiece (24) securely to a fixture block or work table (22) during operations, such as machining and woodworking. The clamp includes a body (26) and an insert (28), the insert having a contact face (46) for applying force to the workpiece. The body preferably held in a cavity (36) in the fixture block surface and the insert received in an inclined or angled recess (40) in the body. The insert preferably includes a bore (44) therethrough, such that a tension bolt (32) can be inserted through the insert and into the body. Threads in the tension bolt can be engaged with threads in the body, drawing the insert along the inclined recess in the body, thereby applying tension to the tension bolt and applying downward and forward forces to the workpiece at the contact face.
