How much did you spend on your clamps? Mine are kinda cheap right now
and if I put too much pressure on them, they have a tendency to start
bending and metal fatigue, etc. I can clamp enough for anything I ever
need to do, but not 100's of psi. If I need to clamp 2 small pieces
together for jigs and the like, I just stick them in my vise overnight.
Holds great and spreads pressure over a larger area. Much easier than
trying to put 2 bar clamps on a 2x2" block.

ever tried a Bessy K body clamp? HD quit carrying them, but they are
still available in other stores and of course, through the 'net. Great
clamps. and you can NEVER have too many clamps...
