    Default Re The GREAT Bessey Clamp Buy

    I have posted this in the General Woodwork forum as this is the place where I think most people visit most often and I would like most to see it.

    I finally picked up my clamps yesterday - 12 K body clamps of various lengths and 4 Kli's. Today I had a go at them - "BEEEEEEWDYFUL" - if something could be referred to as tool then this would have to be close.

    I had looked at these before with much envy and considering the budget considered myself out of the running. With many thanks to Martink for his foresight and initiative I am now the proud owner of some of these clamps - I understand that "THANKS" is only a small word but I would like to state publicly that Martink and Colin from Northwood [in my case] have done an excellent job - my woodwork won't necessarily be any better but it will be easier and more enjoyable thanks to their efforts.

    I'm not sure what others saved but from my quick check around I have saved a minimum of $460 and a maximum of $625 - this of course is excluding postage or driving to get them - either way the expense was worth it.

    Gentlemen - please accept this as my public THANKS for you efforts.

    Regards,
    Bob

    No photo's, never happened

    (My Bessey's are all hanging up in the shed. I did not purchase them in a bulk lot like this mob, can't afford to. I just buy them in pairs, MBGitW understands that one clamp is useless )
