Review on πŸ”© AUTOTOOLHOME Pocket Hole Clamp: Easy and Efficient Woodworking Joint Tool with Drilling Jig Accessories by Justin Coatsworth

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Loss of clamping and poor workmanship

This product is just not good. Attempting to apply a clamping force lifts the yoke off the surface making it extremely difficult to ensure the joint is straight and flush. After fumbling to make sure it was properly clamped and aligned, I tried to screw in a blind hole screw and it slipped out of alignment, ruining all the fuss I was making trying to align it. After all, the "clip" is just the head of a screw, which is why it left a dent in the wood. The part that sits around the screw head spins freely and does not sit on top of the screw head, causing the head to protrude. In short, I came back after one use. Good thing the project I tried this on was for a family. Otherwise I would have to redo everything.

Pros
  • Carpenter's special clamp with inclined hole, strong clamping force, suitable for clamping wooden panels
Cons
  • There are problems
