Eric is a huge Cubs fan and yes, he will talk about the 2016 World Series unprompted. When he's not explaining why he's the only person who should be allowed to drive, he's spending time with his wife and two children who tolerate his dad jokes with impressive patience.
My recent issue number 217 of WOOD (MARCH 2013) magazine has a review on bar clamps, they reviewed DeWalt Medium, Irwin Quick-Grip Mini, Bora, DeWalt Large, Craftsman, Bessey DuoKlamp, Bessey EZS, Irwin Quick-Grip SL300, Jorgensen ISD3 Lee Valley Aluminum, & Irwin Quick Grip XP600 good review with pictures and a comparisson chart. Eric ya better hope your wife didn’t hear your remark on bringing up the past or you will be building a bigger dog house with your Irwin Clamps. LOL
Excellent, in depth review of an often under-appreciated but always essential tool.
this has solidified my resolve to get a solid irwin clamp set soon
You speak the truth brother. Good clamps are a must.
I have some of the older style 300lb clamps and I like them. They are a little pricey but they work great. I like that the pads on the new ones that go all the way down to the i-beam. As a budding woodworker i’m sure i’ll pick a set of these up when they go on sale, because as they say you can never have enough clamps.
