I read the article a while back in FWW about bar clamps and saw the Rockler scored very well with its many features. Rockler was nice enough to go and put them on special, even offering free shipping in their latest catalog and I was ready to lay down the cash with an order. Then I had to go and do a damn fool thing like ask where they were made. I've always been a bit persnickity about that but even more so as my toy er I mean tool collection grows. Unfortunately the reply came back "Tiawan".
Oh well, off to Menards tomorrow to take advantage of their "bag sale" and pick up some Jorgensen Ponies. They were runner up in the article as I recall and they are made in the US
