How to do it yourself?
The vice is considered an indispensable carpentry tool.Since buying a new clamp is expensive, you can try to make a device yourself. Homemade pipe or metal tools should be made using drawings.
To make a clamp at home, you will need to prepare a grinder, welding and a drill. In addition, the master will need the following materials:
- profile tube with dimensions 50x25;
- corner 30x30;
- bolts m16 and m8;
- extended nut m16;
- bearing 202;
- iron strip 10 millimeters thick;
- timber made of wood with dimensions 40x40.
First, you need to cut off a meter of pipe and weld an M16 nut to its end. In this case, the master should put a 10 mm strip under the tube. After that, you need to tighten the bolt and fill the bearing. A corner is welded to the bottom of the product.
The next step is to make a thrust area that should move freely through the tube. In the latter, it is worth drilling a hole for mounting the m8 bolt. An adjustment hole is drilled after 5 centimeters. In the bar, you need to make a hole for the bearing.
From the following video, you will learn how to make a carpentry clamp with your own hands.
