We had a little drawer box project here at Toologics, a good time to check out some Clamps. Of course I had to get Rick, our tool expert, in on the party. What clamps did he recommend? "Hands down, the Jorgensen Clamps made by Adjustable" he said. The Adjustable Jorgensen clamp is both a spreader and a clamper - sounds kinda funky but we'll go with it. Rick says they are stronger than the other clamps in the market because
1. The jaws on the Adjustable Jorgensen meet perfectly together and
2. They have a double cam action in the engine. Just kidding, there's no engine - just look at the photo.
