Creative

Botanical Press and Frame

Use the 24 in bar clamp with two flat cauls to press flowers or leaves for art. The 1,000 lbs of force and clutch lock keep layers tight while drying. After a week, mount the pressed botanicals between glass and a simple wooden frame you assemble and square with the clamp’s 3.5 in throat depth.


Bent-Laminate Wall Hooks

Make curved hooks by laminating thin wood strips over a simple form. The 24 in reach accommodates most forms; the ergonomic handle lets you apply high, even pressure without slipping. Glue, stack, clamp to the form, and let cure. Sand, finish, and add keyhole hangers for sleek modern storage.


Bookbinding Press for Handmade Notebooks

Create a compact press using two plywood plates and the bar clamp to compress signatures for gluing spines. The secure clutch lock holds alignment while adhesive cures, yielding crisp, professional notebooks or sketchbooks you can customize with marbled or fabric covers.


Phone Overhead/Slider Rig

Repurpose the bar as a mini track: mount a phone clamp to the sliding jaw via a small plywood carriage and T-nuts. Clamp the bar across two stands or a table and glide the jaw for smooth product shots or top-down videos. The 24 in length is ideal for tabletop content.


Edge-Banding Flush Jig

After ironing on edge banding to plywood shelves, use the bar clamp with a straight caul to hold the banding dead-flat while it cools. The 3.5 in throat depth reaches standard shelf thicknesses and the high clamping force prevents lifting or bubbles, reducing sanding time.
