I told SWMBO about the closeout sale on Bessey clamps at Peachtree. She said "Do you really need more clamps?" So i walked her out to the shop.

She said "Go ahead."

So, you are the reason they are sold out. :gar-La;:gar-La; When I opened the email and followed the link, all I saw was "Sold Out". :BangHead: Hope you got some. Only time to buy is when they are on sale. Not as good a sale as the one Amazon had a few years ago but still a good price.

I did manage to get my order in before they sold out. Picked up 4 of the 12's and 4 of the 31's

Time to make another clamp rack.

Mark, seeing all those clamps on the MDF looks very similar to a project I am working on...are you building the folding worktable? I hope to finish mine this weekend.

Cheers,
Donn

Mark, you do know a vacuum bag could do that without all those clamps? Nice "stage" :gar-Bito justify more clamps:rotflm:. I've been tool lusting over a framing nailer. I have the HF 6-N-1 which has done all I could ask of it, but it's heavy and bulky. (I have my eyes on a Hatachi.) Today asked my wife to hand me nailer (she has been my helper this week), and she said that thing is HEAVY! The seed has been planted.

That's the one Donn. Mine should be done today.

Sometimes subtle works best. :icon_thum

My wife doesn't ask me when she wants a new dress, shoes, book, etc and I don't ask her if I want a new tool or something. Asking for her permission is to much trouble. Besides, I can always justify a purchase.
