Is it a deck planking clamp?
« on: February 02, 2023, 02:04:00 pm »
Hi all I got this image from a Panart Bruma build on MB magazine website.  I asked what the red 'clamps' were but no response.
Does anyone know what they are?  Also where do they come from and who sells them?
Best regards
Roy

Yes they are planking clamps - the basically have a small self tapping screw on the end which holds everything down.


Unfortunately I don't know where to buy them but I did make my own.

Hii TT thanks for the heads up, I suppose I had worked out the method just wanted to be sure.  It may be something I can fabricate for myself
Thanks again
