DIY C-clamp, How to build a C-clamp from c-channel for Wolf River Coil, MPAS or just a outdoor light

Post author By admin
Post date January 19, 2022

In this video I make a DIY C-clamp from some left over C-chanel I had. I wanted to buy this but cost (100+tax and shipping) and availability are not good and it cost me 10.00 to make and that was mostly for paint, which I usually have on hand. I will do another video soon on a anyone that can use a hacksaw and drill can make for under 10:00! I only had a short time to make this before I leave for a trip, so a quick build.
