Agreed!!!!!

horizontal jack, and it is like being hit by a haystack. *A ton of worthless

Like you, I dont care to waste my time searching thru piles of online
rubbish, and for that matter, I'd prefer to avoid shopping online. *Yet,
I have not found any jacks that say "horizontal use" in the local big
box or hardware stores.

And while we're at it. *I'm still looking for the other kind of tool. *A
C-clamp or any type of clamp that clamps OUTWARD. *In some cases, a
bottle jack is just not feasible to use. *Why is it that all clamps are
made to clamp inward?

Yes, but they all seem to be special purpose from a quick google .
Try search string:


reverse force clamp

I don't understand the "anti google" bit. All I get when I use it is
either one "google"
advert at top and the search field, or no advert at all, jsut a blank
page with the search field.
