Excelent easy to use tool - Recommended. [Posted on 2005-07-31] I bought the T-50 50" Double Grip Bench Clamp with T-track for a large acrylic project. Cell cast acrylic sheets, 1/2 and 3/8" thickness, were cut with the T-50 as a guide for my circular saw. The T-50 is light for its size, is easy to allign and clamps well - lots of force and without losing my allignment. It held the acrylic well while the cuts were made - even 48" cuts while clamped on smooth acrylic edges. I was able to hold very close tolerances on all cuts, exceeding my expectations.
I have also used the T-50 on additional projects - including particle wood and plywood - usually as a router or saw guide. It has performed well on all occasions.
A well made tool [Posted on 2007-01-26] I bought this because it is too clumsey to cut 4x8 sheets of plywood on a tablesaw unless you have one with the large table extention. I have tried to use a board and other things for straight edges and clamp them to the work with less than perfect results. This tool is made of a heavy aluminum extrustion which will not flex out of shape. The locking arm has three positions, light,medium,and full lock. You slide the other clamp block back and forth to set the grip length. This model has a clamp on both sides so you can clamp it to a workbench and then use the top clamp to hold your work in place. I gave this 4 stars because it does not clamp at an angle. The important thing is when you want to make a straight cut you dont want to fool around aligning and clamping and reclamping. This tool is fast to use and clamps very tight and stays put till you release it.
Clamp [Posted on 2007-02-07] Great piece to add to your collection. It holds really well and is a great help in ripping plywood panels.
want to pull your hair out? then buy this... [Posted on 2008-02-01] at first i was disappointed in the flimsy nature of the product. i figured it should be intuitive and easy to use. not so. it seemed the product was broken as it would not work. so i had to make a long distance call at my expense. there after three attempts, someone told me they had a problem with the product they had not anticipated. they were correcting it by including instructions. so the person told me the 'secret' of how to make this foolish thing work. i followed the cumbersome instructions and got it to -just sort of work. but it is a very awkard procedure and even then sometimes it does work and then again it will just not. this item sure is not worth the money, not worth the hassle, and not worth having to make a toll call. all it is good for i think is as a straight edge...foregoing any plans to have it clamp easily to wood and guide a saw. never would i have bought this ahd i seen it beforehand.
