          As you can see they have padded rubber jaws and are about 7cm long. As someone commented a while ago "You can never have too many clamps" :tongue-out3:

                  Major expense for me today to buy a vital tool:

                  [ATTACH]488565[/ATTACH]

                  Building the LCA made me realise once more how useful one of these can be, but my old one (35+ years) from school broke some years back, and the other one I found buried under stuff in my hobby room was almost illegible, so I ended up spending all of 95 cents at the local bookstore

                    Found this on Amazon for £10.95 delivered and couldn’t resist :smiling4:
                    Box is a bit battered thanks to poor packaging but contents thankfully intact.

                          That's a staggering price.....almost 1/3 of what it should cost! Had to order me one!!

                            I needed a few sizes of plastic strip I found I didn’t have, as well as treadplate, and supplies of some other stuff were running low:

                            [ATTACH]488618[/ATTACH]

                            Also, the place I ordered it from had knife blades of types I hadn’t been able to find for years (wide chisels and saws), while the copper wire is just convenience — sure, I can twist it myself, but for €2.95 for 55 cm (=three or four tow cables), I might as well splash out for it.

                              How many tpi. on the #13 saw blades? I'm looking for something in the range of 40+ for extremely fine cutting. Thanks also for supporting the U.S. economy with all those "Yank" Flags on your products.....reminds me of "Flag Day" here in the States. :thumb2:
