Excellent, Compact, & Convenient Medium Power Clamp
I have lots of pairs of clamps.Quick-Grips, bar clamps, pipe clamps, spring clamps, and so on.Different versions of somefrom different manufacturers.They all have their perfect uses but limitations.The Quick-Grips are good one handed but you have to really work to get good clamping force and workpieces tend to squirm beneath the large puffy pads.Bar clamps apply strong force and have less tendency to make the workpiece squirm, but take 2 hands to set and sometimes dent the workpiece.Pipe clamps with pads are massively strong and stiff but are awkward to install and have very shallow jaws.All of these options are heavy and large for their opening dimension.

Enter the Bessey KliKlamp.I recently picked up a couple of the 8" ones and have given them a good workout in the shop.The KliKlamps are exceptionally light and compact for their capacity.Let's compare them to a close competitor, the 6" Quick-Grip:

Quick-Grip:6" capacity, 14"x9"x1.5", 2 1/4" jaw depth (to center of pad - the real world test), 24 oz., 250 pound clamping force, 3x mechanical advantage driving clamp, $20.

KliKlamp:8" capacity, 11"x5"x1", 3" jaw depth (to center of pad), 11 oz., 330 pound clamping force, 18x mechanical advantage driving clamp, $20.

The KliKlamp has set a new standard.It offers more capacity, less size and weight for easy jobsite carry, greater jaw depth, higher clamping force, and better mechanical advantage to make getting the clamping force easier.All for the same price.I haven't had the KliKlamps long enough to say how their magnesium jaws hold up compared to the Quick-Grip plastic jaws.The bar pin sheared on one of my four Quick-Grips after extensive shop use.

The KliKlamp can be set one-handed, but not as easily as the Quick-Grip.That difference will keep my Quick-Grips around, but I'll be using the KliKlamp for most tasks.The KliKlamps will for sure be my travel clamps on account of their size and weight.Note that KliKlamps, and Quick-Grips, are "convenience" shop clamps.They get heavy use holding workpieces, stops, and in light duty glue clamping situations.You still typically have to reach for bar and pipe clamps when gluing. ...

Edge clamp adaptor works better than you would expect
So this edge clamp adaptor looks like something put together as an afterthought. Don't be fooled and don't think that the other cheap knockoffs are the same. I've tried both. The bessey locks tightly and squarely to a tradesman clamp, turning it into a superior edge clamp with lots of holding power.This was a revelation to me the first time I put some oak edging on a new cabinet.Other brands I tried looked the same but did not fit tightly and took a lot more fiddling to make them work - losing a lot of time and convenience.These are also very handy for use with k-body clamps for some of those odd clamping situations you may run across.

I was so impressed that I went out and bought another half dozen.
