Clamp I didn't know about until now

Post by reible »

As wood workers you know you just can't have too many clamps.

So while researching my tool budget I came across ones that I didn't know about, much less own. I actually ordered and received one of them to farther evaluate. Shouldn't have doubted them since they are Bessey. The big advantage is that they are smaller and lighter then the ones I already own. Who needs a 24" clamp when a 12" will do the job?

Here you can see the difference. They also have a 6" but I'm thinking another 12" would be of more use to me. And no you don't buy them for the low price, the 12" is just over $24, the 6" if I remember was just over $20.

Just a little heads up for something to do with any Christmas cash that might come in.....
