I have been building a set of shelves and draws for a workroom in my home over the last couple of months, and I needed something I could rely on to give me good squared off corners in making the large draws. Pulling the fronts and sides together whilst I glue and screw, I knew I needed something more than my Kreg Pocket Hole System, and for its size I thought this to be a good option. It proved to be so, and whilst at first a bit fiddly, I found that by mounting it onto a baseboard with a couple of blocks fitted to support the stock, it quickly became straightforward to use. Doing this does negate the ability to switch the clamp head around on the thread and turn it into a flat faced clamp, but I have plenty of other clamps for that purpose. Chunky and solid with a good strong square thread, the only down side on the device was the mounting holes in the handle. Designed for a countersunk screw to be put through it onto a baseboard, two drawbacks in manufacture are the countersink is not very deep, and the hole is big enough for at most a couple of 4mm screws when I think a couple of 5 or 6mm recessed cheese-head bolt might be better. I am going to see what I can do to better its fitting after I have completed this project, but it has served its purpose well for now. This is only a minor observation and not worthy of reducing it to a four star item. I reckon a good purchase and value for money, from this seller at about £11.00 and I am sure I will be using it in the future for some other jobs where a simple Butt Joint is sufficient and strong enough if glued and screwed. It arrived quickly and was adequately packaged.Read full review

Excellent quality and very robust, up to the usual high standards of Stanley. They are quite weighty but really simple to use. The handle is just so easy to operate with one hand while lining up your work with the other. I really do recommend these clamps.

Clamps corners nicely and has deeper jjaws. A little paint had filled in the angle at te base of the jaws and needed filing out so wood could sit abslutely squarely.
