WOODWORKING QUIZ for 26 AUG 04
Good Evening Friends,
Having those clamps with the little wooden handles that seem to let your hand slip while you are tightening them is a pain.
What could you do to get a better grip?

I reckon throw em out and get quick release clamps ....less hassles failing that get the termites to chew knurling onto em
What this country needs are more unemployed politicians.

Handle
Wrap them with the rubberised [NOT rubberiZed] bandage which the
Olympic [GOLD Winning] cyclists use on their handlebars.

Drill a hole at 90 degrees through the handle and use a 3" nail as a tommy bar.

Make the handles the same style as a "G" clamp. You need to be careful then not to apply too much pressure or you will damage your work.

WOODWORKING QUIZ ANSWER for 26 AUG 04
Good Evening Friends,
Ivan was the closest to the answer I was looking for as he said wrap them with the rubberized tape while the correct answer was to dip them in heavy duty flexible coating, such as "Plasti - Dip".
Let the coating cure and your clamps will be as good as new.
Thank you for your support.
