That could be handy.  It is not too bad a price, if it works of course.  I have never ordered from Peachtree.  I do see a lot of people on this site linking to them.

This is slightly off the subject.  What really aggravates me about spring clamps like these, is the plastic pads at the top are always facing the wrong way when I try to use them.  The worse part is I never notice until I am clamping something and only have the one hand.  I know this is not a big problem in the whole scheme of things, just saying  :).

Thanks GB for the info.

Barry,  I order from Peachtree all the time.  Excellent company.  Fair prices and fast shipping.

Uh oh!  Here we go again.  GB has found another "gotta have it" item for me to spend my money on!

Sorry GB, but I have to blame you.  You keep testing my willpower and I don't really have any!   ;) ::)

Hey GB Thanks! Just ordered a couple. It's always a pain when you've got something small to clamp and you gotta break out the big clamps because the spring clamps wont open wide enough. These seem to be a great gap filler for just that situation. Can't wait to get them. And you cant beat the price.

I bought the similar ones the Betsy makes from Lowes  they don't open as wide but same concept.
