[h=2]Re: Which HF clamps?[/h]
Thanks everyone. So, let's do this; what are you favorite clamps?
I have to say that my favorite is the one that fits the job at hand. I started out with "C" Clamps (3", 6" and 9", Used several 9" yesterday.), moved on to pipe clamps (1/2" and 3/4". Used a 3/4" yesterday), acquired some F-Style (18" to 36". Brand name and no name, Used a 36" yesterday), have wooden clamps from 8" to 16" (Used some of each size yesterday)(yup, I clamped up a project for completion), bought some HF aluminum bar clamps and agree that the quality is poor (and yes, used several yesterday), and have several spring style clamps (HF sucks, stick with name brand. and yes, I used some yesterday).
That being said, each type of clamp has its own job that works best. I have the HF because I am CHEAP , but replacement bar clamps will be quality as I am slowly learning that quality tools work sooooo much better and longer.
So how about it, what is your favorite clamp?
