In case you dont have a special tool, just make one U wire turn and use a player to twist and lock into place. Do two wire locks if in doubt. Works fine.
That impressed with the simplicity of this version, I copied it immediately. Used what I had : an old s/steel table knife handle and a tent peg like yourself. An hour all up. I'd post a photo,except it looks a lot like yours. Thank you for your contribution.
Great video!! Just made my own and it works great . Super easy to make . Made a couple of improvements by put a couple of washers on and brazing them in place .Thanks for the idea
A minute ago I watched this guy getting chucked out a shop while singing the vomit song and now I'm learning how to make handy tools, gotta love UA-cam!
Good on ya bluey Was looking for a copy of the 'Clampit' type took made in the USA (though many yank products are actually made in China (while the yanks are insulting them) Found a bloke that speaks Australian ~ Subscribed
Thank you for taking the time to show this DIY project. I plan on making several for Christmas gifts. Peter, your awesome for posting such a useful hack.
I made one out of a caulking gun. I cut most of it away save the handle. Slots in the tube holder to anchor the wire. Then the groove in what is left of the plunger.
@@MuckingMunt definitely a disadvantage to using a rather large caulking gun. It may be a good idea to build several of these for tighter spaces. Much like stubby screwdrivers or short ratchets are used.
Hey, great video. I'm fed up of buying Hose clips and 90% aren't good or just don't work. The other 10% might only work once. Today, I finally found a solution. Keep up the good work Peter.
Well Done! I purchased a tool for around $30 with the intention of copying and making my own but I love the Simplicity of yours and it works great. Thanks for sharing!
The 2nd and 3rd ones that you have there use the same principle. The problem with them is that you need to be maintaining pressure by rotating the spool handle while at the same time rotating the tool to bend the ends over. The first one works by tightening the screw threads, so it will stay at the same tightness when you release the tightening handle to start the rotation to bend the ends over. Although the 2nd and 3rd ones are easier to build, I think the 1st one would be easier to use and produce more consistent results, so that will be my next one to build.
@@paliaspip -- I'm in the process of combining a few sections of garden hose that I now have because of one of my dogs developing a taste for garden hoses. She wasn't satisfied with just chewing in one place, but would move 6-10 ft down and start chewing again. With that many repairs, it would be cheaper to buy a new hose than to buy hose mender kits for every place she chewed, so I decided to see what I could come up that would be a lot cheaper. Turns out that the copper sized CPVC pipe is 5/8" OD and fits the garden hose, albeit a bit tight and I need to use a heat gun to soften it up sometimes. After putting the wire clamps on a few times using the #2 variant, I determined that it was a bit awkward during the final bend-the-ends-over part of the endeavor. I might just be using too thick of wire -- I'm using 17 gauge galvanized electric fence wire. By my calculations, the galvanized electric fence wire plus 3" pieces of 1/2" CPVC pipe ends up costing me about $0.10 per repair. That's a LOT cheaper than the commercial mend kits and the wire clamp is less likely to slice your hand than the ones using the screw type hose clamps.
@@paliaspip -- It might be better if I used a vise or something to hold the coupling and hose instead of holding them in my hands while also trying to operate the tool. As I repair the garden hose, it is getting longer and the twists seem to take a life of their own... :) Arthritic hands, also... :(
Terrific if you have clean, unobstructed access to the work area. When does that happen though? It's almost always in tight, cramped quarters with reach and maneuvering restrictions.
Well done, thanks! You can make it yourself or shell out $50+ for a cruddy Chinese version! I'll make my own!
F China ! I'd rather buy Japanese ones !

I like how this one is so easy to make. I just subscribed Thank u, keep the good ideas coming bro...
What a great video, very informative. Thank you
k-nemo.... You're welcome mate. Glad you enjoyed it!
Looked at how many subs u had, dam I was thinking it would have been 100 times that....man keep it going you'll have your time someday.
Great video!! Just made my own and it works great . Super easy to make . Made a couple of improvements by put a couple of washers on and brazing them in place .Thanks for the idea
So great to hear that! I'd love to see your modifications. Hope you get some good use out of it
Very ingenious indeed and the video was well done as well. Thank you for sharing.
Fuck me son, get a hair band for your face-weave. You have a fine beard there. Dont let it swing around so close to machinery or bad shit will happen.

Very good brother! Muito bom cara ! Parabéns 🇧🇷👏👏👏👏👏
Very good DIY tool .Thanks mate.
You should have done it from the other side and you wouldn't have the regulator in you're way very simple but clever idea
What is the copper structure in the background?
should have had the handle the other way to stop it fouling on the reg
Brilliant, never seen it done this way. How well does the one made of sheet steel work compared to this one?
Check out the Original haywireklamper.com
This is the worst demonstration I've ever seen.
Good on ya bluey

Interessante, fantástico o seu invento. Parabéns!
Nice one mate
Thank you for taking the time to show this DIY project. I plan on making several for Christmas gifts. Peter, your awesome for posting such a useful hack.
good job and tent pegs will never be the same again.. must take the anvil etc supplies on next travel. well there are horseshoes~!
A) what diameter wire? What grade ? Stainless galvanized? Any link to product?
Any diameter smaller then your hole that drill. Stainless, gal, or mild steel. They will all work
thats great ,,,can you tell me how much pressure you are running in the hose ,,thanks
yeah putting around 115psi on them.
Very useful DIY versions of the Clamptite and Haywire Klamper.
I was thinking of getting one of these. Thanks for showing me how to make one!
good, very simple DYI
Nice Design. Very Simple. Thank You.
Nice! thanks man, really cool vid :)
I made one out of a caulking gun. I cut most of it away save the handle. Slots in the tube holder to anchor the wire. Then the groove in what is left of the plunger.
Interesting. I've never heard or seen the caulking gun version of this tool. I'll have to give it a try.
Sounds pretty cool... but might lose a bit of versatility being larger? Maybe a bit of a pain if you're clamping in a tight spot.
@@MuckingMunt definitely a disadvantage to using a rather large caulking gun. It may be a good idea to build several of these for tighter spaces. Much like stubby screwdrivers or short ratchets are used.
Thanks 4 video brother..very helpful
you almost didnt have enough room for the handle. both you showed operate the same, just each one works better depending on the situation.
wow , thank you for sharing. i tried it it works extremely well

Thanks heaps Ryan. Hope it works well for you!!

Great home shop make! Love the mainline rail anvil, have the same in my shop.
Very cool. I guess you get better leverage from the handle than the bought ones.
I'm definitely making one now
thank you very much for the great info take care and have a wonderfull day
Waste 's a lot of wire just to make one clamp.
This is the easiest to make.......maraming salamat......Thank you......
Cool man. Is the 5 mil aluminum wire
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
This is the simplest one I’ve seen yet!
Neat tool. I will be making one. Thanks
Did you do the vomiting song?
Mad Max would approve.
Cheers mate
Thanks for the video mate👍
Very Nice.
are you hoppie?
Thank you cheez m8
Great ! Thanks !
Very nice, thanks !
Thanks for that
Interesting and Creativ
I like it , thank you. Will also probably make one...
Joseph Leister - cheers, hope you do make one, I think they work great
Thank you. I'm going to try it out on PEX.
I'd love to see it if you do!!
Awesome. Thanks Pete!!!
well done
Thank you, very innovative !

The 1st one is slow to use unfortunately, but it does still work. I definitely prefer the 2nd and 3rd varieties though

Cool... maybe next time you can make a tool to wash your hair
