It's meant to be attached to another clamp, so as to provide clamping
pressure at a right angle to the bar of the clamp. They are
particularly useful for applying pressure in the center of a wide glue
up but can also be used for edge banding.

I have a number of them that were made fairly recently by Bessey which
have the model number of 5-1 on them.

Its an Edge Clamp. It is designed to attach to a bar clamp. Typically used
for clamping face trim or laminate work. Its nice to have a dozen or so.

Many news servers (mine included) strip attachements from non-binary
groups (which rec.woodworking is).

Could you repost your pic to alt.binaries.pictures.woodworking? More
people will be able to see it.

It's an edge clamp, and if you don't want 'em I'll take 'em!
