I threw two cheap cast aluminium ones in the bin a good while back that were not square nor did they even sit flat.Bessey are good but i seriously cant agree about out of square.

They are cast though ? One suspects damage more than poor buildI threw two cheap cast aluminium ones in the bin a good while back that were not square nor did they even sit flat.
Yeah they were definitely cast.They are cast though ? One suspects damage more than poor build
Yeah they were definitely cast.
Went in the bin the same day they came out the box.
Thanks for all of the advice. I bought a pair of Bessey clamps. I looked at loads of different pages for advice. I know bessey is a good name for wood working stuff, for the same price as the other ones it was a no brainer.
I bought a pair for £111 delivered today will see how they are, if they’re good I will order another set.
The screw is on a swivelling Barrell. It’s meant to be able to clamp different sized things together.Only thing I see wrong with them Kim is the single screw, they are only any good on the same size material . The ones with two screws can be used on different sized material and still be square without needing packing pieces.

You have far to much money though. I don’t hahaI bought em from a member on here.
Old matching pair of Vodens. Love em for flat bench work.

It was on amazon. I typed in the model number and then bought from amazon because I could get next day delivery. It seems to have gone up in price on amazon now. Loads of places to get them for the same priceMay I ask where you found them at that price @KimB ? Cheers!
Yep. They are the same exact ones I have.I have a set of record clamps, they have been very useful on box and angle. There is a lot of scope in the jaws.
