Well, Muhammet, a comment like yours makes me happy! Hahaha. Thank you so much for your kind words, my friend. Your great comment makes me forget all the hard work I put in my videos. Thank you for supporting me, buddy!
Greetings, Christophe
Ingenious in the simplicity of the design. I’ll be making a few for my shop and maybe for my woodworking friends. Thank You!
Thank you for your nice comment, my friend
The best 👌🏽😉
Thank you so much, Alexander.
I'm glad you like this video.
Greetings.
Very, very nice! Actually I think the improvements are the cleverest part. Thanks mate, I enjoyed that.
Thank you so much, Mark! Those improvements make it so much easier to handle, even with one hand. Thanks for watching, my friend!
I really expected to see a big-ol' spring on the back. This is a clever little design and is very scrap-wood friendly.
Thank you so much, Frank. I'm happy to see you are surprised to see on how this clamp works. Thank you for leaving me a comment. Greetings, Christophe
Love the simplicity!! Yet again another brilliant design.
Those are some kind words, my friend. I really appreciate that.
Thank you for watching, and see you in the next one.
Greetings.
Bravo Christophe!
Encore une belle realisation pratique.
À bientôt..
🇨🇵
Merci Marc. Je trouve aussi cela très pratique et je prévois d'en construire d'autres. Maintenant, il ne reste plus qu'à trouver le temps, haha. Cordialement, Christophe
Thanks, brother. I always enjoy your Innovative videos. I think the world would be a better place if everyone would just do some woodworking. Hey, give woodworking a chance! 😁 -Rick, USMC

that's awesome! I need to make a bunch of these. I could have used this when I built the drawers for my son dresser. great video
Thank you so much, Wes. These clamps are easy to make, and I guess if you make a lot of them at once, you will be ready in no time.
Thanks for supporting me, buddy! I love your videos too. I even like them so much, I added your channel to my recommended channels on my channels home page) ... Oh, damn, that was a lot of channels in one sentence, LOL.
Greetings,

Broccoli has super strong ruber bands when you buy them usually. Your welcome.
Thank you for sharing this
Brilliant idea, mate 👍🏽
Rubber bands seem to perish rather quickly in my workshed, so I use old bicycle tubes and they haven't degraded at all.👌🏽
Thanks, Bill! Bicycle tubes were my first idea, but then I thought, everybody has rubber bands, so let's use that. Also, I think a bicycle tube will be too thick. On the other hand, like you mentioned, a bicycle tube will last longer. If you try it, let me know if it works, I'm curious.
Thank you for watching another video of mine, my friend.
Greetings, Christophe
@@christofix
I was going through too many rubber bands way to quickly, as they were perishing and snapping without me realising.
I had some home made wood stains in jars that had no lids so I used plastic wrap and rubber bands, but as I said they didn't last and I didn't realise until I needed the stain, only to find they had dried up somewhat and spoiled...
I went to our local bicycle shop and asked if they had old tubes they were throwing out, and he gave me a handful, about 6 or so tubes.
I think experimenting with cutting different lengths of bands and trying out 1,2,3 or more twists and folds to see what kind of pressure it would yeild for different types of pressure required for different projects.
Not sure I will get around to making any soon, as I'm quite busy, but I do intend to give it a go. Will let you know as soon as I do.👍🏽
@@Bill.L.Carroll I have a piece of tube in the shop somewhere, now you inspire me to try it out and see how it works, hahaha. Thanks for your comment, buddy
@@christofix
😆hahahahaha😆
my pleasure buddy,
now you can let me know how well it works out! 😉🤣
good night
Could you send me a link to download the plan?
thank you
I bought something like this on amazon and i think its concept makes it hard to use. If we want a good firm hold, we must increase the tension, but it makes it too hard to pull the jaws open. I much prefer your corner clamp using the long bolt. But for light use, these are good as we can open and close them in a snap!
Hi, thanks for watching and taking the time to write a comment. I appreciate that. After these first tests, this clamp seems to work well, and by tightening the rubber band I think I can make this clamp tighten even harder. However, I have not yet been able to test this on larger pieces of wood and only on lighter material, as you mentioned. But I suspect these will do a good job on bigger material too.
Greetings, Christophe
Thank you very much your corner clamp. You say there are free plans of this clamp in your link. But if i push your link it ask some questions. I mean it is not free, directly not be downloaded. In my opinion free is free and should be free without asking something.
Hi there, and thanks for your interest in the corner clamp plans! I completely understand your point about wanting free access without any additional steps. Let me explain a bit more about why I ask for an email address. It's not just a formality - it's an integral part of how I can keep providing these plans for free.
When you enter your email, it triggers my automated system to send you the plans directly. This system ensures that you always receive the latest version of the plans, including any future updates or improvements, all at no cost. It's my way of ensuring that you have the best possible experience with the tools I design.
I invest a lot of time and effort into creating these resources, and by providing your email, you're helping me understand who benefits from my work and how I can continue to support and update these tools effectively. It's a win-win - you get free, up-to-date plans, and I get to keep improving the tools I offer.
I'm really passionate about woodworking and about helping others in this craft. Your feedback is valuable, and I hope this clarifies why the email step is there. Thank you for your support, and I'm looking forward to sharing my work with you! 😊🔨
Greetings, Christophe
bonjour, je vient de visionner vôtre nouvelle trouvaille, Félicitations, elle va être pratique j'en suis sur ,j'espère recevoir le plan, j'ai fait la demande ? je pense l'avoir demain merci cordialement Alain
Bonjour Alain, merci d'avoir regardé cette vidéo et téléchargé les plans. Je suis heureux de voir que vous pensez que c'est une bonne idée. Cordialement, Christophe
@@christofix EXTRA Bonne continuation et a la prochaine cordialement Alain
I would like to see springs instead of rubber :-)
A spring was one of the ideas when I designed this corner clamp, but because of the bulky size of a spring I had to make the clamp a lot larger, and I did not want to give up on that. The compactness of this jig makes it possible to use it one-handed and is easy to work with. But still, a spring is a good idea.
Thank you for watching, Kamil. I appreciate your comment.
See you soon, Christophe
@@christofix I was thinking about something of this shape www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-13-16-in-x-4-in-Zinc-Plated-Extension-Spring-2-Pack-15608/202045475 (I believe home depot is in your county) it may be fixed in a same way to jig (I hope) and you could try to find a smaller spring that could be hidden in a groove. What do you think?
Those are indeed smaller springs, thank you for taking the time to search for it and share it here. That is much appreciated. We don't have a Home Depot in Belgium, but I'm sure I will find this kind of springs in another store here.
Thanks again for sharing, Kamil!
Greetings, Christophe
I don't know why I've assumed you're from USA. Glad to see you like it.
@@kamilrenczewski5151 Hahaha, no problem buddy! Now you know I'm from that small country known for its chocolate and beer, LOL.
Far too fast and no instructions. Didn't help much but thanks for taking the time to upload
You clampted again….
Hahaha, indeed. Thanks for watching, buddy!
