Clamps //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/woot.gif.aaa6090e619a97b6090d16dd863c5a69.gif

The bar clamps are 30", and the 90* ones are 3"

Time to start making screwless boxes //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/up2something.gif.dd110ecf3ae4b76050d87598f2f8de7c.gif

Even though there is a sticker on the bar clamps that says "Made in China" These are very nice quality, and are pretty strong.

If you want more info PM me. I got these very cheap on eBay.

I got the bar clamps for $0.99 + $24.00 shipping

and the Angle clamps for $11.00 + $8.00 shipping

Considering a single bar clamp at HD would cost the same as I got all of bar clamps for shipped, I think I made out pretty well. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/yumyum.gif.0556df42231b304b9c995aefd13928a8.gif

I got a smaller version of those same bar clamps at Harbor Freight for like $1 a few weeks ago. It's a big POS.......good luck. They don't clamp tight or hold well, the handle is backwards compared to a normal "quick grip" type clamp, and the orange pads fall off all the time.

Maybe you'll have better luck, mine went into the garbage. I already have 4 of the 48" metal clamps, but figured I'd try this for clamping stuff to the bench to sand/router, or whatever. NOT worth the trouble....
