Bar Clamps Woodworking
What Woodworking Clamps Should Every Woodwork Shop Have?
A woodworker can never have too many clamps in his shop. It is one of the few tools you need that do not require power and act as machines that generally make your manual work a lot easier. Unlike an extra pair of human hands, clamps don’t fidget, complain or wobble about and provide greater clamping force.
If you’re a beginner in the woodworking industry, you might want to consider buying from the list below. Also, you don’t need to get them all at once. Just work through the list and purchase those you feel work best for you and suit your budget.
Don’t go to one shop and make your purchase immediately. Shopping for clamps can be a tedious experience where you will need to look online and in your neighbourhood for the best deals and quality.
- A collection of C-clamps. Buy those 4-inches and above. Don’t waste time buying the tiny ones.
- A pair of Quick Grip clamps similar to the Irwin Quick Grip clamp. They work better than the old-fashioned screw bar clamp.
- A pair of pipe clamps, or more. I recommend buying a 4-inch pair, before you move on to various lengths.
- A pair of Vice Grip C-clamps
- Some band clamps. They use nylon bands that tighten with a ratcheting device, which is great for clamping together irregular-shaped pieces.
- You will need corner clamps for holding together 90-degree joints. I use these to hold picture frames together to cabinet carcasses.
- An assortment of large strong spring clamps.
- Corner bar clamps which you can get at Bessey, used to compress stock and clamp two pieces to a 90-degree corner.
