 Best 1/2-inch pipe clamp December 21, 2007

I have several of these clamps. The Pony has the best spring/clamp mechanism of most of the clamps in it's category. I bought a set of the cheaper clamps and the springs weren't strong enough to keep them from sliding around. When you have glue drying on a large project, that can be a real pain. Pay a few extra bucks and get these.

Clamps can make or ruin a long prepared piece of work.
Buying a suitable clamp can be like entering a minefield of potential disaster, but with the prospect of a passage towards a successful conclusion.
Clamps can become a joiner's passion!
I have used many varying kinds of clamp, paid ridiculous prices in those warehouse store of orange and blue, and have amassed a collection of clamps that adorn my workshop.
My most expensive clamp is ironically my least used.
I can wholeheartedly recommend the Pony clamp. It offers excellent compression, virtually no lateral movement and is a real bargain at the price.
How I would have loved a couple of these worthy claps when I struggled with the headboard of my bed!
If you need to join boards, frames, doors etc you need at least four sets of these clamps.
You'll need some varying length of iron pipe to match.
For the price it would be hard to do better!
Update
Actually, you can do better, Big Lots have a similar clamp for half the price.

For maximum clamping power, the " pipe clamp is the way to go. If your needs are not as demanding, then then this is the clamp for you. The crank style handle worked very smooth and has adequate travel. The adjustment with the handle was such that either light or heavy pressure could be applied with ease. The clamps can also be set horizontally on a flat surface allowing you to edge glue pieces for tabletops very easily. The beauty of this style clamp is the ability to change clamping length needs quickly. One clamp with multiple lengths of threaded steel1 " pipe gives you endless capabilities. While the steel bar type clamps does have their niche for lighter task (drawer construction, carcasses assembly, etc) and the " pipe clamps handle you most demanding jobs, these clamps could be considered a hybrid (in capacity rating) of the two. For my money though, its worth a little extra in investing in the " model as oppose to this one. But then again, why not have both? You can never have enough clamps!!!
 A good clamp - with limitations. August 15, 2000

These clamps are the little cousin of Pony's great 3/4" pipe clamps. While the 1/2" clamps work fine within their limits, they do have limits. Applying a lot of pressure will flex a 1/2" pipe, possibly leading to an out of square joint. I also do not think that the clamp tightening mechanism is as well made as on the 3/4" clamps, but it is still pretty good. I have several of these clamps and while I think they are a good value for the money, I would suggest spending a few more dollars for the 3/4" clamps.
