How to Reverse a Woodworking Clamp

[@jimray1111]

Now that's a cool tip! I notice from the comments below that others apparently already knew this but at some point or another they had to discover this information on their own. Now your "Ah-Ha" moment has become my "Ah-Ha" moment. Just another tidbit to be pasted along. Thanks so much.

jim ray Thanks Jim! Yeah, there are some tips that aren't widely published but that some guys understand.

Very good tip Joshua, thanks for sharing.

Good tip. You might also think about wedges.

Brilliant

Do you ever look at product descriptions before purchasing? They tell you about that feature. I think all parallel clamps do that and so do the quick clamps. You can also cut some all-thread to the right length and use coupling nuts on each end to spread things. Even cutting a board slightly long and wedging it in works. Many ways to do that simple task, that was just a few.

Derric, since I bought my clamps used, no, I didn't look at their description.

They are called bar clamp/spreaders.
