I've got a piece about 11x14 that I'm sanding the face of. The sander was making short work of the piece but it wanted to move across the bench. Since it was such a small part, putting a clamp on would have been more annoying than just holding it.
So I'm just curious--what are your favorite methods of work holding for sanding?

For something that size, I'd use the face or tail vise with a bench dog.
Absent those, one of those non-slip rubber mesh sanding mats.
"Use the force, Luke."
Harbor Freight (or other) anti-fatigue mat Carpet anti-slip mat/router mat, etc. Bench dogs Thinner pieces of material clamped to bench (poor man’s bench dogs) Double sided tape

I was using the force, it's just the arrows on the free body diagram were all going their own way!

The cheapest is probably a rubber router mat.
Past that I use Festool's MFT table with dogs and horizontal clamps.
