BOX CLAMP

Great idea, I have been searching for a cost effective way to get more box clamps for my students to use. Could you post a picture of the 2 clamp bars from the side, I plan on making one tomorrow and am curious how much material is left at the bottom. Thanks for sharing.

Man this is a well thought out tool, cleaver stuff Klaus, bet a few will be of to the shop to build their own version :)
Cheers

Nice,

And when you do it I’m sure it’s square. I used that nylon strapping as webbing on my sofa last year, there is stretch to consider?

Nice idea and design. Thanks Klaus. This will surely be a great addition to my tool/jig addition in the very near future.

Great invention. You better patent it or Rockler will have them for sale before Christmas!

They are too easy to make and I won’t waste more money on a patent ,I have one on my Dowel Tail system and will never make money of it just a waste of time .
If I approached a manufacturer they would just tell me that they already have something similar and will marked it soon .
Just make one for yourself and don’t wait for a manufacturer .

Good looking clamp Klaus. I use a ratchet version from HF that is very similar ….. but yours is free and very efficient.
I also like yours just for being shop made. Good elegant tool making, thanks.

great idea and a cool shop made solutions to clamping boxes and keeping them square. Thanks for sharing that with us.

Gee wiz more good stuff from Kiefer! I see you have been busy brain storming and inventing good things again. This is a really useful idea you have created Klaus. Looks like a nice way to clamp up a box. Nice work!

I like it much better than a ratcheting system.

Oh yea I can see making a few of these are in the picture real soon…sure beats the all the clamps I used the other day on those 6 tissue boxes I made. thanks for the great idea and the step by step instructions help allot

-- Larry in Hawaii,

Klaus, that’s a great little idea there. The serpentine strap wrap seems to be the trick. I also use the ratchet version from harbor freight but this looks more versatile. Well done.
