I really like this style of clamp and wanted to share the method I use to make them. It requires a bit of welding to make the clamping mechanism.
The clamping mechanism is made by welding 12mm nuts to opposite sides of a 14mm coupling. The 12mm nuts hold short lengths of 12mm threaded rod to hold metal bars and act as a hinge. A longer 14mm threaded rod is used to apply force to the workpiece by tightening it using a socket in a drill. The stop end of the clamp is similar only it has a stop block instead of a clamping mechanism. The stop block is as high as the clamping mechanism nuts and as wide as the top wooden bar of the clamp. It is 2.5 times longer than the width. There is a 12mm hole drilled near the beck to receive a 12mm threaded rod. The clamp wooden bars are made of reclaimed pine and have holes drilled at 10cm intervals.

Recommended. Super, Brother.👍
My dude fused those boards on atomic level! Very nice engineering, thanks for the vid!
Excellent looking clamps really appreciate the up close look at the end with a ruler
Excellent video Chris. Great job. Thanks.
I saw these clamps then saw the price. This was the exact same idea I has. They look simple enough. Hardware isn't cheap. I'm sure it was still cost effective and more satisfying. Especially considering you have to still mill the lumber with the ones you buy . Good job.
Hi Chris I'm from Brazil.
I'm choked with your ideas. Thanks for this clamp. You are amazing.
Hello my friend,
I made this exact same clamp from all metal. I will be using it in a big project soon. I watched this for the second time. Thank you for sharing and giving your opinion. See you. big greetings.
Thank you Mehmet 😊 I look forward to seeing them my friend 😊 I have used these many times and they are brilliant. Blessings to you all there 😊 ॐ
Excelente...Prático e funcional...além das ferragens serem muito mais baratas do que as vendidas nas lojas...PARABÉNS...Abraços...
Fantastic work and an excellent video! Thanks for sharing that. Those clamps are awesome.
Thank you my friend 😊 ॐ
Those are an absolute knockout Chris, a really good tool very well made. Table tops, cabinet sides, doors, all sorts! Great job and a most enjoyable wee vid. Good job! Thanks mate.
Thank you Mark 😊 They are just what I needed and plenty strong enough. I have plenty of big pieces to work on, so they will be getting a lot of use. I've seen a lot of similar clamps and they reminded of a system for joining classical guitar tops that I had seen in Spain many years ago and they work almost the same only on a larger scale. Blessings and love to you and Kath from us all here 😊 ॐ
Going to keep this in the "saved" video file this is well thought out and practical
Thank you Alan 😊 ॐ
great video. I will definitely make these. thanks for sharing.
Muito bom, e bem útil. Parabéns brother
Hello my friend.
very good idea. I had made these kinds of panel clamps last year. However, the tree you choose must be very strong. Because some of my trees were broken by compression :-) You did it better and solid.
congratulations. Thank you for sharing. See you. stay healthy and safe. Greetings.
Thank you my friend 😊 I used 50 reclaimed Pine and the grain is really straight. I'm sure that is the reason that they are strong 😊 Blessings to you all there ॐ

Muito bacana ficou excelente seu projeto grampo sargento caseiro fácil de fazer e de grande utilidade muito bom mesmo brigadão
far out mate those are cool af! That coupling nut assembly ... 💯
Thank you Rob 😊 I love these things. I was surprised at how great they worked 😊 ॐ
Ingenuity Chris, very well made video mate. I like it when the use of some nuts & threads add to the idea we can look for many possibilities to create something that’s rather innovative to give our woodworking an additional tool homemade 🍻🍻👍👍👍
Thank you Dirk 😊 I tend to leave welding projects until I have a few to do, but playing about with nuts and threads often inspire me to make something useful. I have a much bigger project to complete and it mostly involves welding and if it's successful will become a future video that could be useful for woodworkers 😊 ॐ
Very nice. You can keep the wooden bars the same width by using an inner and outer metal bar on each one instead of two inners on one and two outers on the other.
Awesome
Welding eh? I haven't even started yet and I'm intrigued already! Gotta' go in a minute or two but I'll settle down and watch later. Cheers Chris!
I left the welding bit out Mark 😊 My phone camera didn't like it at all. I'm still trying to fix my proper camera, but the parts will take a while to get here yet ॐ
Awesome clamps . I need to look into making some myself.
Thank you Frank 😊 I've needed these for ages 😂 I'm happy I finally got around to making them. They work great 😊 ॐ
That was really good Chris, the clamps seem to work very well.
Thank you Harki 😊 They are great for what I need 😊 I hope you are all doing well there my friend 😊 ॐ
Awesome clamps mate. Such an ingenious idea.
Thank you my friend 😊 ॐ
supper
Hi there! Excelent panel clamps! I have 4 homemade a few years back!
Thank you Diego 😊 They are great to use. I really like them 😊 ॐ
You’ll give woodpeckers run for there money thank you you are great happy new year’s to you
Those look great, Chris!

Thank you Billy 😊 I am part way through watching your snowman video. I love the intro 😂 ॐ
some shims and thin wedges under the top bar will force the underside (your good side) to flush up the board edges .
Great tool,buddy 👍👍
Thank you Jörgen 😊 I hope you are all good there my friend 😊 ॐ
@@TheWoodYogi yes, mate. Wish you well in these times. The workshop is the safest place to be 😋
@@jorgenlannock I'll try and remember that 😊 ॐ
Hey I got a shoutout logo at the end! 😁 Cheers, Chris! What a great build, they look super solid. I'll have to revisit this if I ever need to do some big panel glue ups... great design. 👌
Thank you James 😊 I'm loving these clamps. You noticed the shoutout 😁 I hope a lot more click on it my friend 😊 ॐ
@@TheWoodYogi I have had a few new subs lately 😃 I usually watch to the end. Today I spent hours sanding so caught up on many videos ;)
make some saddle type feet that slip on wherever. Takes the floppiness out in setting up clamps.
Namastee Chris, brilliant work!
I will have to see couple of more times to understand 😆. Thanks 🕉
Namaste Mahendra 😊 I hope it wasn't too complicated my friend 😂 Blessings to you all there 😊 ॐ
Its okay Chris 😊seeing it couple times people would avoid mistakes. Thank you once more🕉
Creative. Inventive. And otherwise a damn fine idea. Now, to figure out how much the nuts, bolts and hardware will cost me. Super!!! Kudos!!
Thank you Robert 😊 ॐ
Very cool idea! If I ever get into big glue ups this is the type of clamps I will make :)
Thank you Grant 😊 I'm waiting for the day you build your dream cabin in the wild. I'm sure there will be plenty of big glue ups jobs then. That would be great to watch 😊 ॐ
@@TheWoodYogi I'm patiently waiting for that too 😁
@@TheGrantAlexander I think waiting is underestimated Grant 😂 I prefer it to finishing something because once it's completed there's nothing to do but wait for the next thing that follows 😊 ॐ
@@TheWoodYogi i like finishing to, now can you please tell my bank to gift me the money for the cabin so I don't need to wait anymore
@@TheGrantAlexander You mean you don't have a money tree? Me too 😁 I suppose waiting it is then. In the meantime I'll continue the Kuber Puja 🙏 ॐ
Bom trabalho gostei , Bahia Brasil
Thank you 😊 ॐ
Does that work on all resins?
Muito bom mesmo parabéns show de bola 👏👏👏👏👏
For those of us who can’t weld/don’t have a welder, I think you could probably drill through the middle of that coupler then use a tap to cut threads into the 2 new holes. Put a piece of threaded rod in each side - maybe use some epoxy (making sure it doesn’t go in far enough to interfere with the long clamping bolt) to make it more permanent - then snug some nuts down (again, maybe with some epoxy) to reinforce what would otherwise be a point of failure. Probably the same result, I think, and no welding required!
Thank you Donny 😊 I'm sure that would work. It was my first thought knowing that not everybody will want any welding in a project. I made them this way because I really needed to get a big project finished and thought it might be the most reliable without experimenting too much as time was limited for me and the welder was ready. I will try your method in the future if I get some free time 😊 ॐ
@@TheWoodYogi I think a lot of woodworkers are welding-phobic and it’s a shame because it really opens up a lot of cool possibilities. I’m not really welding-phobic; there’s just always something else (other than a welder) that I need to buy first (or a bunch of wood - very expensive lately - that I need for a project). In my case it’s especially a shame since I have two very capable teachers - my Dad and my little brother. Even if I broke down and bought a welder, though, I’m worried that I’d be bad at it because my hands are kind shaky. BTW- great clamp design and execution! (Sorry I forgot to say that in my initial comment.) I’m saving this to my Woodworking playlist. The next time I need to glue up some panels, I’ll definitely be building some of these clamps! Maybe I’ll even have a welder by then! 😃
They work great. Good luck 😊 ॐ
I don't see any plans in the description
why do you need plans? basic dimensions build with what's commonly inexpensive materials available. basic mechanics. build to the size you want. Plenty of design variations in the side panel.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
