Looking for clamping thread

[inchpincher]

Can't find a thread i chanced upon a while back where one of the regulars posted some pics of some simple homemade 90º clamps/jigs made out of box section. Can someone point me in the right direction please...

thanks,

ben

Brilliant, thank you guys, it's been bugging me for days Searching for '90 clamps' didn't bring these up, weird

It was the one that hitch linked to that i was thinking of but i'm also going to have a crack at the one snooper found...

cheers,

ben

A quick and fairly relaible way of clamping things up at right angles is to use a piece of 4" angle iron. The angle is 90 degrees and a couple of mole grips, job done.

I gather you dont see much 4" angle iron Chunko!
Seen some shocking stuff, rare its ever 90degs! I guess it depends on how square you need it to be!

I just make my own from 2 in angle welded together at 90° and some quick clamps
and you can all was tack them to the bench if you have a good few frames to make

i know snooper shoot first and read after
