More Clamps?

DaveL · 12 Jul 2009

I have been to Aldi today and they have the packs of clamps in their specials again.
5 F clamps for £9.99, I bought another pack, need to increase the size of the rack now. :roll:
4 G clamps, I am not a fan of these so managed to leave without them, but could not pass up the swing ball set, the grandchildren will have great fun when they next visit.

Is that the quick ones or the proper metal F-clamps?

I bought to sets of the quick ones last year, and although they have been good they lack any real clamping power. Ok for stop blocks and things thou.

Thanks, I'm going into Aldi this week and will look out for clamps while I'm there.

I recently bought a couple of these from B&Q to try and am pleased with them:

Just found the clamps advertised here:

At that price, I suppose it was too much to hope they were quick clamps.

I have a few of those quick clamps you linked to, but prefer F clamps, once stuff is in the correct place, so use a quick clamp or 2 first and then work round with the F clamps and as they say you can't have too many clamps.
