    Default Festool Quick Clamps

    I have two Festool quick clamps, the screw type that Microjig copied and I notice they no longer appear on Festools website. They have been widely criticised because they lose clamping pressure and I wonder if anyone here has worked out a fix for the problem.

    Agree to disagree on this, Chris! My experience is that Quick Grips work better through dogholes than Festool Quick Clamps.
