I've got some pictures of these in use (4" I think) at:
http://www.alaska.net/~fritzf/Boats/Wacky_Lassie/Wacky_Lassie.htm
about halfway down the page. I think they're great for light-medium
clamping. You can cut the jaws various ways for custom fits & jigs -
very cheap!

Neat idea.

They are pretty simple and cheap. Go to your local building supply and buy a
some schedule 40 PVC pipe in various diameters, say three to six inches. Cut
it into rings 1-3" thick. Then cut a lengthwise slit in the ring. Spring the
ring around whatever you need to clamp. The thicker the ring, the stronger
the clamping force. You can get about 20 clamps for just a few dollars and a
few minutes of labor.

JB
