The arcuate portion has a workpiece engaging surface adapted to engage an outer edge of the workpiece. At least one of the coacting arms includes a flexure assembly that allows deformation of the workpiece engaging surface in a direction away from the workpiece in response to pressure on the outer edge of the workpiece from the workpiece engaging surface.
