Bessey VAS23 Vario Angle Strap Clamp Reviews
I have used it on 4, 5 and 6 sided projects and it never fails to provide perfect corners. Well needless to say, I plan on buying 3 more so I can maximize my frame making time. I have used a few frame jigs and this one is hands down the best. This is one Plastic tool I dont mind hanging in my shop. Upon opening the box, i saw a piece of plastic.im tough on plastic things, tools should be made out of steel, aluminum.etc.
Plenty of power in the ratchet and ease of use make this tool my primary tool for repairing and assembling picture frames.
I attribute this to the plastic corners sliding on my poly'd frame. Overall, no problems with applying pressure and they worked as one would expect.
This clamp made it easy to clamp the frames with the glass in place.
I bought these clamps for glass interior shutters I am making. 2.25" oak frames surrounding hammered glass, 45 degree cuts (to be followed up with spline keys after the glue dries).
I figure I'll glue small (2mm thick) neoprene pads to the mating surface of the corners to eliminate the slipping issue.
The only reason I didn't give this clamp 5 stars, was because unless I was VERY careful when moving the clamped shutter from my work bench so I could address glue drips on the "under side", the corners had a tendancy to pop (slide) off.
They begged for a review so here it is: I never used it. Good luck Plastic packaging looked tough to get into.
Used this to aid in aligning the top of my workbench and it was perfectly suited to the task. Can be a little awkward to position the clamps until pressure is applied, but just takes some patience. Everything held fast while I marked the holes, drilled and drove it all together.
