Great clamp
I've used this little frame clamp to produce 100+ fine art frames. Every one came out perfect. It's very easy to use. I just assemble it dry, then loosen by 1/2", and remove the parts. Apply glue to all, replace them in the frame, and snug it up tight. The wingnut is a bit tough on the fingers. I replaced mine with a 1/4-20 jig knob. All better. The clamp is self-squaring, so very little adjustment is needed. I make up any slight outage (maybe 1/16) by pushing the diagonal legs towards center with my hands. My only complaint is that the plastic jaws are too short. My parts are 1-3/16" thick, and would benefit from even pressure all along the length of the joint. I partially make up for this by overtightening, and by shimming the top edge of the jaw with playing card stock, to focus the pressure. Even so, this clamp is still better than all the others I've tried.

Easy to use.
This framing clamp is the easiest clamp I have ever used. The set up was easy and I used wax paper to keep the glue off the tracks. I could use another one in the future.

great investment
I am new at making frames, I started so I can deal with scrap wood, never got it square as I like till I broke down and bought this set, not I am planning on getting several more.

Easy and Effective!
The clamp is easy to assemble and even easier to use. It glues perfectly tight mitered corners. Well worth the money.

made clamping pictures almost too easy
simple and easy to use--made 4 frames in less than an hour-- way better than the band clamps I was using

Works better than other clamp products
The wing nut it too hard to tighten enough to get enough pressure. I replaced it with a hex nut and tighten it with a ratchet wrench that can slip over the long bolt. I've tried other clamp products and this one is the best. I bought four of them so I don't have to wait for glue set time when I'm making multiple frames.

Nice Product
For gluing up frames it works great. Took a little time to figure out how to set it up, but after that it was a breeze. Tip: Get the frame set in the jig. Tighten it up. get it square (corner to corner). Then release the wing nut just enough to get one side of the frome out. Glue both sides of that piece. Put it back in the jig. Then do the same thing on the opposite side of the jig. Tighten up jig. Check for being square. Wait for the glue to dry. It is that simple.
