Mid-week ratchet-clamp catch-up


Direct video link - https://youtu.be/jQGvPciChL4


Hey everyone. This weeks mid-week is all about the banggood ratchet clamps, and how they stack up against the Festool and the old Axminster Trade clamps. TL;DR - they work great as clamps, unless you use DeWalt, Bosh, Mafell or Evolution guide rails. 😬


Also continuing the experiment with the small camera and on-board mic, so please excuse the 'roomy' nature of the audio, in particular.


Thanks as always for your awesome support.


Peter

Thanks Peter, good to know the Makita clamps don't fit through an MFT, will get some on order for when my table top arrives.

Hi Pete. Silly question but have you tried inserting the banggood clamps into the evolution track from the other side? My drillpro ones work fine . Maybe they changed the casting. Thanks for all your most enjoyable content.

Thanks Sean. I tried the clamp I have on all the evolution rails I have, and it wouldn’t fit any of them. I’ll pick up a pair of the current clamps and try them out, thanks! šŸ‘

Currently the Veiko brand ratchet clamps are £32.51 a pair and can ship from the UK, so only 3 days delivery. Probably the most used clamps in my workshop and great value in comparison to Axminster or Festool.
