Kind regards, Peter Kloss

That clamp is incredibly useful for lots of jobs - buy a pair, you won't regret it.

Dear Tim

Can you tell me what exactly the clamp is and a suggestion of where to get one?

Thanks and kind regards, Peter Kloss

Tool makers parallel clamp, the 2 inch vernation is the right size for us, Elieen does them

Alternatively there is Ebay

I wouldn't be without mine.
