spline jig

I have made a spline jig for my table saw. The kind with a carriage that the
picture frame rests in, and then you push the jig thru the blade to make the
spline cut. How would you clamp the frame in the rest? I can't get the
clamp to grab the frame because of the angle of the rest.

I'm not sure I understand why you can't clamp your frame to your jig, but
perhaps you need a better jig. See mine :

On mine, a clamp squeezes the frame against the MDF portion of the jig.

If your spline jig looks like this:

... clamp the frame to the jig "fence" (vertical part of the jig).

If it doesn't look like the above, then a better description of what you've
built is in order.
