Clamp storage
I have a lot of the wrap around clamps that consist of a threaded rod,
with corner block. The clamp is then assembled so that it goes around the rectangle object. The rods area about 3/8" and 30" long. With they disassemble to a small package, being rods they are difficult to handle Has any one any good suggestions for storing this type of clamps -- 2018: The year we learn to play the great game of Euchre |

As per size it is a little over kill. You would be surprised how many 3/8 inch rods you can get in a small space. I will think about that. -- 2018: The year we learn to play the great game of Euchre |

That is specifically why I said "something like this". ;-) Seems like a single or a couple of 4" PVC pipes is all you need. Make a base to stand them vertical or lay them horizontal, maybe up in a joist bay.

Can you hang them like I do mime? https://i.imgur.com/sDHDNGW.jpg Or use smaller PVC, one rod per pipe: https://i.imgur.com/KakbiZh.jpg |

IF he got his where I got mine (Penn State) I know what he is talking about and have just hung mine on nails along the wall. But then I only have two and almost never use them. |

I know that. He posted a link to his style of clamp: http://www.leevalley.com/us/wood/pag...=1,43293,31162 It was the hanging/storage method that I was trying to show, not the clamp types. |
