They're very quick and easy to use, but they're so sprngy they don't
allow much clamping force. They're useful when routing, but no use for
hand tools.

They also need to be shimmed to be near horizontal or their clamping
suffers. The teeth on the end of the jaw are pretty sharp and damaging
too.

Thanks, Andy. I think I'm going to pass on them. I've grown to appreciate
really good acting clamps. Nothing adds more to the pleasure of
woodworking, in my opinion.
