Stopped in the Borg today to get a propane torch cylinder, and saw the yellow tags on the Bessey K-bodies. I don't own any of these clamps.
I played with a couple of them for a bit. They close straight, nice and square. Peeked up in the works to see how they keep the head straight as the screw advances. Looked again at the price. A 24" clamp was $25; it was $30 for a 31", which seemed a more useful length to me for a clamp like this, but still a little too short for general cabinet work. 37" would be better.
A pair for $60 -- what can you do with just one clamp of any given type?
-- four would be $120. Glanced toward the crowbars for some help, but it was no use. I just don't have enough complaints about my good ol' pipe clamps.
Guess that makes me a confirmed cheap bastage.
