Spend the extra money and get a better clip.

Does what it's supposed to do, but it's clearly of poor quality. The pivoting pressure plates on each end of the jaws don't automatically unfold when you close the clamp, so you have to move them by hand, making this a three-handed tool. Do not buy.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • vulgarity

Works best with hand tools

- Item dispatched quickly and delivered as described. - My concern is that the clamp ends can be on the small side compared to other clamps that have a round disc on the clamp ends - they are small square ends. Only time and use will tell how well they hold up and how long they last. I compare them to Kreg and Vise Grips.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Good but not great

GARBAGE. Fell apart on first use

Bought to hold my pocket hole gauge. The first time I used it a spring flew through my yard and was never seen again and my jaw just dropped (me too). It has the same great jaw coverage and so many other uses. If you don't want to buy this type of clamp, stick with the brand name. *** Buy cheap, buy often! ***

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Not automatic

As you'd expect from hand tools

I don't know how anyone can be excited about a tool like this but I have to say the quality, looks and functionality all seem good. Only time will tell how I use it, if the product works well from application to application and if it is worth it. For now I would recommend it. UPDATE: I have already used it and am completely satisfied. I needed this in combination with a Kreg pocket hole gauge and it worked great and much faster than the screw clamp.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • alt

Beautiful and well built - suitable for building wood projects.

I bought this to fit pocket hole joints and it's a welcome addition to my arsenal of clips, angle clips and stockings which I put on to keep my joints straight and tight. It works like a vise and might be easier to use (e.g. the threads can allow for quicker adjustment) and in time I'll buy another one. Good enough for my shop - if you have more there are self-adjusting face clips that are even easier to use.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • A few small things

As expected from C-Clamps

I don't know how to admire such a tool, but I will say that the quality, looks and functionality seem good.

UPDATE: I have already used it and am completely satisfied. I needed this in combination with a Kreg pocket hole gauge and it worked great and much faster than the screw clamp.

Pros
  • QUALITY: Made from extremely high quality heat treated steel these clamps are strong, strong and durable. Used for welding, carpentry and more.
Cons
  • No Instructions

You get what you pay for.

To save some money I bought this clip and at first thought it looked decent. I've used it four times in very limited amounts. When I started using it again the spring popped out and I couldn't get the center section to stay in place. I've tried several times to put it back together but it's impossible. It's too late to return now. I agree with the other reviewer, spend the extra money and get a well known brand that woodworkers use. There's nothing more frustrating than trying to start aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • PRECISION: Clamping pliers are precisely processed in every respect. This allows you to accurately determine the level of adhesion to your project and the materials you are using. Make each clamp with the right force to keep your project stable.
Cons
