Hi All I recently put together a flat pack kitchen unit and borrowed some pipe gluing clamps, I found them to be great so decided to make some. I first checked out what large sash clamps were available but found them to be expensive $34 just for one. I bought a set of pipe gluing clamps these have a 3/4 BSP thread in one end and screw onto a 3/4 pipe and the pair cost $17.95. I picked up the pipe for nothing it however is black pipe not galvanised. I cleaned the pipe up using emery paper and painted on a rust converter sealer and I am using a epoxy paint to finish them off. I made them six feet long and was going to cut them up making a pair 4 feet and a pair 2 feet but my son said why not keep them that long, they are completely adjustable with a screw handle one end and the jaw slides along the pipe at the other end then locks off at the desired length required. If I get into a position where the six foot length is to long I can cut them off quickly with my steel cut off machine. So with a little effort I now have my own which should last for a long time.
