Clamps
Put the squeeze on high
priced clamps …. Make your
own with this FREE plan
You can construct as many
clamps as you require in
varying lengths and at huge
cost savings.
I saw a picture and
description of these clamps
on Instructable’s that were
designed by Mike from Wood
Shop Mike. I just redrew
them in Sketchup and
dimensioned them in Metric
and British units. If you would
prefer there are plans and
construction details on Mike’s
website as well. Just follow
this LINK.
I was so impressed with the
design I wanted to share it
with followers.
Have Fun!
This is not my plan. It was designed by
Wood Shop Mike and the original is
available on his website as well.
