Well, got a couple of clamp racks built for my oddball collection of pipe clamps, jorgensens, bessey's, quick grips, etc...
There are a few shorter pipe clamps left over, but I think I'll take those apart and put them in storage.
On to the hand clamps and spring clamps and c-clamps and such.

You need more clamps
If you don't take pride in your work, life get's pretty boring.
Rule of thumb is if you don’t know what tool to buy next, then you probably don’t need it yet.

Yeah, but then I'd need more room to store them...
Got about 6 more pipe clamps and 4 smaller square tube aluminum ones that wont fit there so...

Won't fit there? Are you kidding, you can pack those in a lot tighter than that. just turn the handles right and you can easily put another pipe clamp between the ones you got already

I've got these plastic feet's on those that take up a bit of space. I like them cause they make the pipe clamps a lot easier to deal with.

The nice thing is that these racks took about 20 minutes to make each, and if I upgrade my clamps someday, I can easily swap out the racks and clamps for something better! IT's a win/win/win/win situation!

I hope the garage clean up doesn't end soon. I'm getting some great ideas.
