Hi everyone

Has anyone had any experience with the Bessey "x-stender"?

Looks like a neat way to attach two K bodies together to get a BIG clamp.

One could probably just drill a piece of steel and put some bolts in it to acheive the same result, but the "foot" on this seems to be a nice touch to keep the clamps aligned before you torque them down.

Seems like a cost effective way to get clamps for the big jobs that occasionally come along.

I'm slowly accumulating some K body clamps whenever I find a sale on Amazon. I've bought 2 sets of the cabinet makers kit 2 24" 2 50" plus K blocks.

I've seen those, but haven't purchased any.
Looks like a great addition to the clamp arsonal
 
I have wanted to try those just haven't pulled the trigger yet. Would help making the 12 & 24" longer, especially when trying to build up my clamp set like I am.
