Homemade bar clamps

  • Опубликовано: 5 авг 2024
  • I recently had the need for some long heavy duty bar clamps. Since i did not have any back then, i decided to fabricate some for upcoming projects.
    The bars are 20x30 mm furniture tubing, and were, along with the nuts, bolts and small hardware the only expenses of the build.
    SPECS ON THE CLAMPS:
    Big jaw: 15x12 cm (LxH) Jaw depth 6 cm
    Small jaw: 10x12 cm (LxH) Jaw depth 6 cm
    Handle length: 10 cm
    Moving jaw intervals: 5 cm
    Thread: M12 (12 mm)
    Effective clamping length: about 135 cm
    Weight/clamp: 3,1 kg
    Clamping power: not yet tested, but enough...

    I saw you use these clamps in your coffee table video, and I knew there must be a story behind them. Very cool story. Thanks for sharing

    • @hindugoat2302
      @hindugoat2302 7 лет назад

      a lot of effort for something you could buy easily at the store cheap... and you made it with all store bought materials and tools so its not about self reliance...
      work smarter not harder, make something significant

    • @micnolmadtube
      @micnolmadtube 7 лет назад +7

      This attitude you guys show displays the exact reason why good, life lasting tools are next to impossible to get anymore. What Finn did was make tools that are build to last long enough to justify the labor and cost of materials versus buying either cheep use-once, that would probably either have to be bought multiple times doing a project or very annoying to work with or expensive use-forever, that cost way more then the self-made ones. Just because a builder has expensive tools doesn't justify spending money carelessly. Resources are always finite and appropriate thought should always be put into what you do.

    This is awesome. Those clamps are fantastic.
    It's really helpful to watch how you make repeatable measurements. I'd be thrilled to one day be even half as competent a craftsman as you are. You must have dedicated a serious amount of time and work to get to where you are.

Informative, interesting, and very entertaining.

    I get accused of over-engineering my projects all of the time. But, after watching you build these excellent bar clamps, I think you top me in the engineering department. I love them! Great job! If you are going to make something useful, then make it well......right?!?!

    • @FinnCrafted
      @FinnCrafted  8 лет назад

      I got those over-engineered comments as well and in this case i have to agree. The epoxy alone would have been enough. I actually found an entire bucket full of free screws and fasteners in a dumpster. The small screws are rarely used otherwise so i decided to use as much of them as possible in this clamp build.
