I have a single pair of these listed below. They are like the
Kreg
locking pliers with the smaller round swivel end and the bigger
round swivel but they are self adjusting for any thickness
material with in it's capacity. Clamping pressure remains
constant at what you set it regardless of thickness being
clamped. Pretty high quality for this type tool. I got mine at
a WW show a couple of years ago and will be buying more next go
round. So easy to use that I use them left handed and I am right
handed.

I like those! If I didn't have an overflowing drawer full of
various sizes of the more traditional vise grip style, I'd be
buying into that as well. May just buy a couple or a few pair
anyway.


10" with swivel pads are $17.50 ea on Amazon, qualify for prime
shipping.



BUT the ones at Amazon do not have the 2" disk one then end like the
Kreg brand. They only have the pair with the 1" swivel disks. I am
currently in contact with the manufacturer to see of they can be had
with the larger disk.. That said, there are ways around that.


Glue on some bigger pads, perhaps?

Ok! I found the vendor. Looks like an additional $10 for the
privileged of having the bigger disk added.

I'll see what I'll do after the pair I ordered get here.
