BESSEYKRE3540 REVOlution Parallel Clamp, 40"

I've done a lot of woodworking (advanced hobbyist) for the last 50 years. I've always found my Bessey clamps to be top of the line and these parallel K body clamps are no exception. I've tried my favorite woodworking store's knock-off versions on occasion to save some $$ and generally found they just don't measure up. The Besseys stay aligned and clamp down with the kind of force I need when gluing up a table top. I used these 40 inch clamps to glue up the leg assemblies for a new workbench I just built. They were just what I needed and they worked as expected.I happily recommend these clamps to you if you're looking for top notch K body clamps.

These are seriously heavy duty and HEAVY. Can’t think of any clamp that would provide both the clamping pressure and throat depth these have. But man are they pricey!

Alright, so, let me tell you about this clamp. First off, I feel like Thor wielding Mjolnir when I use this thing. Seriously, it's like the hammer of clamps - it doesn't just hold stuff together; it practically yells, You shall not pass! to any wobbly wood piece. I could probably hang off it and it'd still keep things tight. Forget muscles, this clamp's got the strength! As for woodworking, it's like having an extra set of hands that never complain or take breaks. Plus, if you ever need to spread the word about good clamps, this one's even got a spreader mode. It's the superhero of the workshop - trust me, your wood projects will thank you for introducing them to this Herculean clamp!

A bit pricey, but you get what you pay for. I ordered four of these at the same time, 3 came on one day and 1 came 2 days later. All four seem to be in good condition.

These are the Cadillac of clamps. Plenty of clamping force, and jaws stay parallel.
