I am a full time engineer and a part time woodworker.

The engineer in me concludes that there was more then the usuall napkin drawings while drinking coffee. A lot of thought has gone into the development and mfg of this exceptional product.

From the woodworker side of me I have used no other clamping product that uses so small a space yet clamps very large products, and does it very well keeping the work strait and under equal pressure.

A true 10 ********** star product. Marvin Carnahan

Bought this a few months ago and just had the time this past week and the necessity to assemble/install it in my shop. I'm a full time professional woodworker/cabinet maker and after using the Plano for the last week gluing up shelving for a double bookcase for a customer, I've got nothing but the best to say about it. I was fortunate to get it at a 40% off sale which made it affordable, and I'm really glad I parted w/my $$$. Just saved me HOURS of time in glue-ups. I want to recommend it so that a lot of people will use it and the price will go down. I'd like to double up on what I have and cant wait for another 40% off sale lol. Time saving, simple as hell, efficient, strong, very clever, tho expensive. I can see the springs on the mechanism are going to be a problem down the road. Hopefully the Plano folks are listening and will come up with a more easily replaceable spring - interesting how they included a few extra with the unit. Anyway, highly regarded. You'll love it - no need for biscuits and excessive aggravation with having boards gluing up flat (tho you still have to fiddle a bit)as well as alternating clamps on top and below to equalize pressure. You can even add extra clamping across the ribs if you want to really bring the plane flat.
