I don't weld, but I do a lot of handyman chores and don't always have a helper. So I bought first the Rockwell RK9000 Jawhorse, which I really love. Then the Rockwell Jawhorse RK9109 Plywood Jaw Accessory Attachment (for really wide stuff), and the log jaws Rockwell Jawhorse RK9101 Log Jaw Accessory Attachment(for use in cutting up that firewood out back.) I debated about this attachment because of the "I don't weld" issue, but the more I thought about it, and used my Jawhorse, the more I wanted yet another clamp to hold things to the thing that is in the Jawhorse main clamp. That's what this gizmo does really well. In addition, if you can't get the Jawhorse in position to clamp the main thing, you can swivel this clamp arm around and use it instead.

Where is this useful? Anywhere you need something to be clamped that will be held up off the floor or table, and possibly clamped in two places (the Jawhorse main clamp and this "C" clamp.)

The other benefit is that this unit comes with some basic aluminum replacement jaws for the rubber pads. You have to remove the rubber pads, because of course if you were welding you'd melt them. But it's pretty fast, just don't lose the screws holding the rubber pads for when you want to switch back.

The jaws are not solid, but I think they'll be ok, they have a lot of reinforcement bracing behind them that is cast into the jaw.

If you also had the table accessory Rockwell Jawhorse RK9204 Work Table Accessory Attachment, you can have the arm on the back of the Jawhorse and use the clamp to hold something over or onto the table. Maneuvering the arm is a little like putting your elbow in your ear but most places above the main frame of the Jawhorse are within reach.

Overall I'd say it was a worthwhile purchase and that it's a nice addition to a very useful clamp, the Jawhorse itself.

I just receive it and I had a chance to use it to cut some 2 inch square tubing. It works great and I'm happy with it.

Is a little heavier than I expected. But it does folds small enough for easy transport or storage.

I knew the accessories were extra but I'm kinda disapointed that Sears sells the Welding Station $20 dollars cheaper (too bad they are out of stock)

I would like to buy it from here but I'm considering waiting for Sears to get additional stock since the price difference is almost a third.

Other than that, I'm happy with it.

As all things made by Rockwell this is a sturdy attachment. It is easy to mount and seems to do every thing I want it to. It is easy to adjust and makes one person welding a lot easier. It seems to be made for holding lighter material, but have not found anything that will match it. I would definetly buy it again.

Not much to say except that it is well built and does exactly what it looks like it does when attached to the Rockwell Jawhorse. My only beef is that you need to remove the plastic jaws to install the metal jaws for the simple reason that the thumbscrews are not long enough to allow the metal jaws to fit over the plastic ones. I solved this with longer thumbscrews but they should have been included. (If you were doing a lot of welding then you would want to remove the plastic jaws from underneath as they might get too hot and melt but for a quick job that would be unnecessary).

I bought this for my husband for his birthday. It took him a while to use it but after seeing what it can do. He enjoys using it. Works just like they say. I even got him the welding attachment. He keeps saying he needs an extra hand so I got him that extra hand.

Great product and wish I had this tool years ago. Just like having another person helping except it a lot quieter. Ha. I would recommend this tool to any one who welds at home or a shop. Thanks

The Jawhorse itself is great. The welding attachment is truly a great addition. I recently needed to weld some pipe sections onto plate to make some sign stands for a school. Not a hard job. Usually I'd use 90 degree magnets to hold the setup while I tacked them on. With this tool I got the first one set up and then by leaving the bar that holds the clamp in place was able to do nearly perfect repeat set ups. Turned it into a production job.

Tool is part of a fantastic tool system that I am very happy with.

I am highly charged on this tool system, It is built very very well and highly useful and Ingeniously designed to serve many functions that are able to be done with other tools but those tools (I own most of them) do not do the jobs with the strong simple approach of this tool. You will find many uses for it that even the inventor probably didn't see.

I am impressed.

The welding station is well made and sturdy for holding pieces for welding. The nubs on the aluminum jaws are perfect for a ground clamp.

Does what it's intended to do. Give's you a third hand to hold stuff in place at any angle. Excellent addition to an already excellent product. Love my Jawhorse and love Amazon !!!
