I see you're in Edinburgh.
Do Lidl have different offers for different parts of the country then 'cos ours didn't have the clamps and didn't know what i was talking about.

 

[Mikey D]

put your post code in and it comes up with the offers at your local store They have the clamps at shrewsbury branch
cheers mike

Sometimes they are limited as to the amount of stock they have and it gets cleared out by carboot /ebay "traders", sometimes it just doesn,t get delivered. Off to my local one see what they have left. Look a bit small but for car body work "more" is better than "bigger"

I did. They don't show up. Neither does the Shrewsbury one. Weird

They're OK for a fiver a set. Sometimes you need a small clamp because there isn't room for a big one.

They don't take a lot of punishment and you can warp them with heat if you are not careful.

T those kind of prices buy a few and make some of these type of clampy jiggy things.

Great when assembling things and you need a third hand.
Apiece of threaded bar welded onto the fixed one and a nut welded on the other one with a locknut.
