Clamp Identification
« on: October 10, 2023, 10:16:19 am »
Hi everyone


I was given a box containing a lot of stuff ages ago - by a friend who was leaving the hobby.


In amongst the items was this clamp - which I have used every time I have planked a model.


Ive tried looking on line to try and get another or even a few more - but - sadly I cant go back and ask where it came from.   It may be from a kit - I just dont know - he was into making the stagecoach kits & horse and cart kits etc.


Any help - would be so useful - because I would like to try and obtain a few more.


Here goes....


John

Not the same, but any good?

Seem to get closer by googling "hand vice" rather than "clamp".

It makes the peas taste funny,
But it keeps 'em on the knife.

It's definitely a jeweller's hand vice, meant for holding small objects.

I'm interested in tiny versions of regular size things.

£5 for the clamp and £23 postage ?  Even as a Yorkie that's really excessive.
