DANGER! RANT DETECTED!

Postby jeff0520 » Sun Jul 22, 2012 12:50 pm

BAH! I need more CLAMPS!!!! I used to make fun of the guys with dozens of clamps lined up on the wall. Now I'm trying to glue multipeice spars together and I'm using every bar clamp I have, pipe clamps, Spring clamps, C clamps, and i just pulled the drill press clamp out and used it too. CLAMPS!!!! :x

So to anyone I ever made fun of for having the Wall O' Clamps......I'm sorry.......can I borrow a few clamps?

To cut down on the number of clamps needed, I clamped each end of small scrapped boards with the thing that I was clamping in the middle. That was especially helpful with 'C' clamps because it kept the end product from getting clamp marks.

It's pretty surprising how well this works.
