Bar Clamp Extensions Too many times I have reached for a one-handed bar clamp/spreader only to find that it is too short to do the job at hand. To solve the problem, I created a hardwood splice....

Bar Clamp Storage This is a link to a Google 3D SketchUp drawing for my bar clamp storage system. You will need the SketchUp software to download this drawing and its freely available online. We do not provide support for this software. Not all drawings have the measurements displayed but you can use the measurement tool in SketchUp to easily and accurately determine the dimensions of each lumber part. Most drawings do not have instructions, its assumed you can build it based on the completed drawing provided.

Bench Holdfast It seems to me that bench holdfasts are a lot less common these days than they used to be. That is too bad -- they are really a great way to secure boards to a workbench. If your bench has holes for bench dogs, you can build one for yourself. All you need is a common bar clamp, a scrap piece of bar stock, and a few minutes.

Bench Vise, Auxiliary One of the things I like best about woodworkers is that we are always thinking. For example, if we do not have a tool or a jig that we need to do something, we make it ourselves, or come up with a work around. Here is an example...

C-Clamp Handle I often use a C-clamp when setting up a tool. But sometimes the sliding bar, used to tighten the clamp, gets in the way. Here is a solution.

Clamp and Beam Veneer Press If you do not have a dedicated veneer press, you can still get the job done with common clamps, cauls, and wooden beams, as long as you use enough clamps for adequate pressure and distribute the clamping pressure as evenly as possible.

Clamp Blocks When edge gluing boards, I use scrap blocks to distribute the clamping pressure and avoid marring the edges. But sometimes the blocks shift out of position or fall to the floor before I get the clamps tightened. To solve this problem, I made a number of U-shaped clamp blocks that slip over the edge and stay right where I put them.

Clamp Blocks for Aligning Miters A band clamp does a great job of applying even pressure when gluing up boxes and other square projects. But if the project has mitered corners like a picture frame, then a band clamp has problems.

Clamp Cradles, Pipe Whenever you use pipe clamps to glue up a solid-wood panel (which is quite often), you will need some way to steady the clamps and keep them from tipping over.

Clamp Holder, Clip On Lamp I like the extra light that a clip-on lamp gives when I work. The problem is there never seems to be a convenient place to attach one.

Clamp Holder, Overhead I found that I had accumulated so many small clamps that storing them was becoming a problem. So I resolved to come up with a storage system that would keep my numerous bar clamps and spring clamps out of the way but still within easy reach. It turned out that the perfect spot was right over my head.

Clamp Holders, PVC Ceiling Mounted Like many woodworkers, I do not have a lot of room in my shop. So I try to make the most of the space that I have. Since most of my wall space is already taken up with cabinets and counters, I needed to find a place to store my long pipe clamps. So I turned to the ceiling, as you can see in the photo.

Clamp Pads Magnetic Whenever I use pipe clamps, I like to place a block of wood between the clamp and my workpiece. This clamping pad helps prevent damaging the surface of the wood. The problem is trying to hold the block in place as you tighten the clamp.
