Was at HD today to use up a gift card and saw that they had Jorgensen
24" clamps - the heavier duty ones - for $12.47 a piece. *Looked on
amazon and they have them for $19.79. *I think sometimes places don't
realize that the clamps marked "3724" are different from the ones that
are "3724 HD".

You might also want to keep an eye on the Jorgensen web site, they often
have sale pricing on clamps. *The shorter lighter duty ones are on sale
in 4
packs for about $20.

Thanks for the link. *I've tried my share of "cheap" clamps (ie. Penn
State) and they just aren't worth a damn. *Broken handles, broken
heads, not smooth acting at all. *Once again, buy the best and only
cry once.

Anybody have an opinion on Irwin Parallel Clamps? They 'look' like
they should be okay....

In the parallel clamps that I have I like them in this order:

- Jet
- Bessey
- Irwin
- Others (several off brands)

i will buy more Jet, Bessey and Irwin and none of the off brands.

Cheers
