Like the reviewer of the Kreg standard face frame clamp who noted its shoddy "imported construction" and quality, I too was very disappointed with its inclusion in the otherwise excellent Kreg Rocket Combo.

This clamp is well worth the upgrade price, with its far more substantial feel and secure locking pressure. I have made some wonderful maple cabinet face frames, quickly and solidly using the system and am quite pleased. Rails and stiles are secured absolutely flat relative to each other, the greater clamping pressure really helps.

Kreg, can you please source a better standard clamp?

I bought this clamp to complement the Kreg set I bought. It's made in China so I think it's half junk. It doesn't have a smooth action and the clamp pads are not like the small clamp that comes with the Kreg set. It has only one large pad not two. From what I've seen at the local hardware stores... you could buy a similar Irwin clamp and epoxy some pads to the existing ones. Of course you could be like me and buy this one but now you are informed.

Although it is made in China, it seems to be good quality. It does what it is supposed to do. The 6" length makes it more versatile in my shop. Anybody who uses a pocket hole jig will greatly appreciate this clamp.
