Woodworking Tools

Flexible jaw inserts are non-marring and are easily removed. They're made of high impact ABS plastic for long life and heavy use. The dual pivot feature allows the Merle to clamp virtually any size or shape securely! Perfect for circles and ovals, plus triangles, hexagons, octagons, and more. 23' STEEL banding included. The Merle clamp has almost no capacity limitation! Clamps as small as 2-5/8" x 2-5/8" to 69" x 69", or 23' around, but can be extended to any length by using standard 3/8" steel banding or strapping. The Merle clamp will hold any type of frame for easy gluing, nailing or screwing. Even jointing force at all corners. It's excellent for wide cabinet type frames (use in the center or edges), and also for narrow picture frames. The adjustable Merle clamp allows you to use as much or as little clamping pressure as needed. Cast aluminum and steel construction makes the Merle clamp a tough tool that will work hard and long for you. Quick Release Corner Clips pull off with finger pressure. Just clip on more corners and get to work!

This is probably the absolute best collection, whether you're buying your first clamps and building your first project or you're a seasoned woodworker who clearly knows to look for the Bessey name. (It also makes the perfect gift for the woodworker and do-it-yourselfer.)

In this set, you'll be getting a nice array of Bessey Tradesmen bar clamps: a pair each of four-, six- and eight-inch models. The two nickel-plated steel spring clamps are some of the best we've used, with a flawless grip and, like all Besseys, a non-marring surface.

Finally, for those big projects, the pipe clamp fittings will do the trick. These will fit your 3/4-inch pipes and turn them into the finest clamps you'll ever use. They're all easy to use, hold like they'll never let go, are gentle on the projects you've spent so much time and effort on and they'll last as long as you do. Even longer. Price these individually, and you'll find out what a great deal this is. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste
