was looking for a video review of the Bessey angle clamps and I became very happy when I saw that you did one, even before I started watching, because I'm familiar with your channel and knew you would do a very good, thorough, and helpful review, thanks for this!
One difficulty I found with these clamps is, when working with large than 3 inch pieces of wood, having to find the correct size spacer to elevate the end of the wood. If you don't keep the wood dead-on level with the clamp your joints won't line up.
The small screw clamps you used to clamp the angle clamp to the bench also clamp the Bessey KR revo series of clamps. Bessey are great clamps. Good video.
Gary Walcott Thanks Gary! I have two of the tour videos planned in the near future.....just waiting on getting everything situated like I want it & organized......there will be a garage tour & workshop tour :)
I'm kinda disappointed (actually very disappointed) that Bessey didn't include the quick-release function in the smaller WS-3 clamp. I guess I'll just wait for the WS-3.1 version. Great tool review! Thanks!
Has anyone made use of the two black gauges that come with the WS-3? I'm not sure how I'd use them. Seems like they'd break if in the clamp with the pieces of wood. Any tips?
Damon Hearne They are for display purposes to show how two different sized boards can meet at a 90 degree angle in the clamp. I threw them away, and cannot think of any use for them.
I have 20 of them and will use several at the same time. You can also use them with other clamps as well if doing cabinets. I would say buy two of them to use. Now you could get away with one of them but it is just so much easier to use two when making cabinets with one at the bottom and the other at the top. Now you could use one at the bottom and at the top use a corner square clamped into place.
Sorry, disappointed with the review as two vital pieces of information are missing, what is the maximum width of material you can fit in the jaws for each model? I sat through entire video wanting just his information.

Bessey are great clamps. Good video.
They're the best!
Glad I bought the small one. Havent opened if yet. Too many other renos at the moment. Great video, thanks!
This review just sold me the tool! Exactly what I was looking for thanks!
I have a pair of these and i had no idea some of the point you made. Great job!! Thanks.
An excellent Video... Taught me a lot! .Well done... Thanks
Excellent demonstration. Thank you!
Thanks. I was looking for a good demo of these.
I didn't even get all the way through this video and ordered one from HD!
Brilliant clamps great explanation I love these but they are expensive here in the uk :)
Another great video. Any chance you can give us a tour of your workshop? Thanks!

Great tool review! Thanks!
While quick release is handy it is not a deal breaker.
@@bighands69 it is a deal breaker time is money!
you are a very good reviewer. what is the max thickness WS3 can handle? will help me choose the one.
I have the smaller one & how would you suggest longer boards ? like a picture frame ?
So if I would need to glue together 2 pieces, not screw them together, would I need something else or these would do?
Good review/explanation but do you ever tire of picking up pegboard hooks from the floor?
Get the heavy duty ones at Walmart…. They don’t fall out like the super thin ones.
Very nice, thanks for the look at these.
DC Rickerson Thanks DC!
Can these be used to clamp 2x4s while fastening with pocket screws?
Thanks,Good Vídeo,With Excellent Explanation, now I know how I can use this.
Can you use these without clamping to a table?
Can't you use the WS-6 on the smaller boards, without having to buy the WS-3?
Are they both made of steel or aluminum???
Has anyone made use of the two black gauges that come with the WS-3? I'm not sure how I'd use them. Seems like they'd break if in the clamp with the pieces of wood. Any tips?

does one need more than one of these..say for cabinet making?

You must be Canadian. I've never heard an American call a nail gun an air nailer.

I have these. the black nut that is on the screw mechanism is made of PLASTIC
I did it with Woodglut.
Make it wooden with the help of the Woodprix instructions.
Hey are you from Kentucky just wondering.
GigaDonk Nope.....but that is a nice looking state.....I was there a couple years ago on a trip.
