On smaller things I usually set up the disc sander on the Mark 7 but these are fairly large so I decided to sand them in with the random orbit with 100 grit paper.

Re: Clamp Rack Build

I think the footprint is large enough for it to be stable. It will have a fair amount of weight on the inside that should help with that. I picked up the material and the casters came in yesterday. Now I just have to finish up the bed frame that I am working on before I can start this.

Re: Clamp Rack Build

Dusty I am trying to design the ultimate storage system for my needs. That's why I didn't go with the Rack Pack. I have so many different clamps that I use on a regular bases and I am trying to get them all in one location with this new rack. I certainly could have bought something for a lot less mo...

Re: Lets See Those Clamp Storage Ideas

Re: Lets See Those Clamp Storage Ideas

I too use a rolling cart. It is one that was sold by one of the companies that sells clamps. I don't know the name of the comp[any. It was given to me by a gentleman who was in the trade but retired. I have most of my clamps on it but not all of them. I have out grown it. If I could find another li...

Re: Lets See Those Clamp Storage Ideas

I have a large shop, 30' X 40'. I have no desire to have a mobile clamp cart. What for? I do all my clamping in the same area. Mine hang on the wall in a central area close to the work benches. There is a lot more wall space than floor space. Works for me. Well John wall space in my shop is prime r...

Re: Lets See Those Clamp Storage Ideas

Wow that ultimate rack is HUGE


I'm planning something around 24" square. I have some clamp hangers that I ordered from Rockler and those will determine final dimensions. I have all kinds of clamps to store so I want to get all the ideas that I can before starting the design.
