It's glue-up time for the bench base and I needed some 6-foot clamps. I
have one 8-foot pipe clamp and was going to spring for two more 8 footers
until the local Ace reported the pipe runs 25 cents and inch. Kinda takes
your breath away.

I bought a couple of wonder dogs on my recent trip to Lee Valley. Screwed
a foot on to one end of a 2x4 and drilled a 3/4 inch hole for the dog at
the other and, voila, problem solved.

I do not why folks buy "pipe" when there is such a better alternative. Go
over to the electrical department and buy ridgid conduit. A lot cheaper -
or was the last time I bought it.

Lowes, etc, will cut and thread it for you also.
