How to Use Clamps

The other use of tools that we use on the job sites is clamps. We have very many styles of clamps, we have elongated clamps, we have wood clamps, we have c-clamps, paper clamps, and pretty much they make clamps for every single use. Depending on what you use it for, the clamp is based upon your discretion. A couple of different types of clamps that we have are these mini clamps. These mini clamps are for hanging plastic up around your job site, or pinning something up to keep from over spray or other items or just to protect something from the wind getting at it or water. The next type of clamp that we'll be discussing is the c-clamp. This c-clamp here is used for compiling two pieces of wood together that need to be either screwed or fastened together. These are also are pressure clamps where you can apply as much pressure as needed to be able to close the item up. These here clamps are also used for doing brakes on vehicles, so clamps have very many different varieties and uses for the clamps.
