I have seen these before, but never thought they looked all that serviceable. But then again, I was only looking a still photos. That video sure seems to disprove my fears. I think I will try making some. I wonder what kind of clamps I could make with that piece of 8" PVC I have tucked away in the garage. :thinking:

It works. I've used them in my woodworking shop. Cheap.

That was hilarious, I watched it on April first so I was not duped. On any other day I might have fallen for it.
