These should be everywhere September 2, 2008
I've had two of these clamps for about a month and they are SO useful. They work well in situations that I've tried to make due with quick-grips in the past, but the SuperGrip's just work so much better. I agree with other reviewers that I don't understand why these aren't in EVERY home improvement store - why is Bessey keeping them a secret???
Expensive, but worth every dollar May 29, 2008
These aren't the cheapest clamps going around by any means, but you ARE buying quality, and you can expect these clamps to last a lifetime. Typical Bessey clamp quality is exhibited here. I use the Supergrips mostly to hold various featherboards to various tools in the wood shop, but have found many other uses for them as well. The 8-inch clamp range also makes them much more versatile and useful for odd glue-up clamping too.
Absolutely worth the money! April 8, 2008
This clamp is pricey, but is superbly manufactured. Though is utilizes the "vise-grip" style clamping mechanism, I found it somewhat difficult to use "one handed". It comes with two pair of plastic slip-on protective jaws for woodworking, or the jaws can be removed if marring is not a factor (welding?). The jaws clamp perfectly parallel, and are capable of tremendous holding power. The 8" width capacity is also a bonus, especially for curved lamination projects. If Norm uses it, how can it be bad?

This is perhaps the best, most versatile hand tool that I have ever owned. I own 4 and will be buying several more. I use this handy vise clamp for gluing, to hold the fence in place for my router table, "ratchet" two warped boards together, hold featherboards to my table saw fence, hold a board to a work surface to cut, sand, route, plane, paint, etc. I also have used the SG8 (without the protective jaw covers) to hold metal together for welding or brazing. This high quality German-made tool is worth every bit of the $50-60 price tag.
I am still amazed that this tool is not for sale in every Home Depot, Lowe's, Sears, Woodcraft or any other wood working tool outlet.
I suggest that this tool be bought in pairs, but one tool alone will be an amazing, very helpful addition to any tool box.

I bought a pair of these clamps while back. Extremely well made, durable and handy. You can use them almost anywhere. They are expensive but I think they are worth the high price.
