in my shop i have lathes, mills, CNC machines, drills and all kinds of fabrication means. last month I started working with wood, so I had to get some large clamps. I didn't even though of fabricating them cause I though I was too damn difficult. now I'm watching you fabricating them with your fingernails on a tiny shop with tiny tools and I'm self kicking my self in the ass. I own a huge fabrication shop and I can't even fab my own shit. you really do remind me of myself as a young fabricator on a garage with no tools but a lot of self confidence and will to do. I really thank you for reminding me that "when you want, you can". please never give up man, and when you get really big in fabrication never forget that everything is possible even with no tools. THANK YOU.
I know this was a few years ago now, but this is the first video of yours I have come across and I had to say how much I like your approach to designing the things you make. These clamps and the belt sander are simple, easy to make and extremely robust. Most "maker" type would fall short on every one of these, the trend is to make things which are overly complicated, awkward to make, expensive in components and not actually working that well.
Of the thousands of DIY videos out there, this is one of a handful that I actually found useful, well done, and something I am going to make. I may just subscribe simply because of Your attitude and sense of humor. Well done.
I do not know how they can did not like this video A step-by-step beauty of this sergeant I liked very much of Brazil and an inscribed of its splendid channel. Congratulations.
Another excellent video Cosmas. Unfortunately I can not help you from my country. We, in Venezuela, are living a disaster but I will be praying for you, your family and your excellent talent. May GOD continue blessing you!!!
Very well made video, very good attention to detail. I work as a Senior VP of Engineering and quality, and a DiY enthusiast and I like to make stuff, and I over engineer everything I make and make it super tough and strong and heavy, and this video meets all my expectations. Like the dry humor, especially about the 639 people asking for the metal pin for the handle. Good work, keep it up.
The cross pin is absolutely necessary. I've made these clamps many times over the years and after some use the handles will slip on the threaded rod if you don't have a pin to stop them or small bolt going through the handle and rod. You did a really good job with the clamps. Great job done well.
What a great presentation for the F-clamps. Very well executed and great instructions you did a great job. Also your belt sander or belt grinder that you built is a beautiful piece of art and it’s a well built design. You should be very proud of your self for such a great creation. Please keep making videos.
time 13:15... I feel your pain... You know its going to happen and you are forced to say something about it... then it still happens... I think we were suppose to be brothers. I am not sure how you ended up on the other side of the world. See you on your patreon page. :)
What a brilliant project once i get to my workshop tomorrow i will try to make some. You can never have enough clamps in my opinion Good luck from Ireland
Awesome f clamp build! I'm very proud of you going the distance to fully rock those out. Can't wait for the belt sander videos. That thing looks like you wouldn't want to drop it on your toe. Heavy duty!
Congratulations is the best sergeant tutorial that I have seen for your clear explanation and simplicity at the moment of doing it greetings from Mexico
Brilliant build. I think I'll give these a go, but will use aluminium for the long bar. I also thought that if the bar was bolted on to the top jaw, I could swap out the bar for long or short bars as needed. Then I can have the shorter clamps for every day use, and then with a few minutes work with a couple of spanners, I could have a set of long clamps. Thanks for the inspiration.
For those who don't have taps for creating the threaded hole for the retaining bolt, just drill a bolt clearance hole and use a bolt and nut. For extra neatness, use a thin nut and cut off the protruding part of the bolt thread. A great video and really useful low cost clamps.
really nice idea on the swivel ends of the clamp.. On the back, if it has too much swivel, grind a smaller width grouve, a little further back, and use a smaller washer, or a piece of flat plate, drilled like a washer, split it in half, slide it over the all thread, and then tack it back together.. You can adjust the amount of swivel you want in your clamps.. Too much is a pain in the tail.. Not enough is not bad, as long as it spins easily.. Cheers.. Nice Clamps.. Also saw you converting them to parallel clamps.. Also a great idea.. Wouldn't take long to switch them back and forth and use them for either metal or glue ups.. Cheers Mate from the USA.. Nice Job.. Subbed!!
Granndideldeu,es ist immer wieder schön,etwas von dir zu sehen.Vorallem mag ich die englischen Fassungen,weil mir als nordischer Wassertreter dann der fränkische Dialekt nicht ganz so arg die Gehörgänge wegfräst 😁 😁 😁.Aber vor allem mag ich dein handwerkliches Geschick,aus relativ nix etwas Tolles zusammen zu pfriemeln,was vor sinnvoll ist,brauchbar und vor allem lehrreich und dazu diese sarkastische Ader,einfach großartig.Wage ja nicht,nix mehr zu machen,ich würd dich ernsthaft vermissen.
At 7:40 when you weld the nuts, just lightly grind or use the wire brush to remove the gal from where you are welding first. Much less fumes and much safer.
Perfect my friend, just perfect, I am about to need a couple of this kind of clamps, but instead of buying them I am going to make them and by the way I am going to make sure I have good strong clamps I can relay on them. Thank you so much!!
I will bet I looked at a dozen videos today. THIS IS THE BEST!! "639 folks are going to suggest that," and " n7.05479... pounds" I laughed out loud on both!
Making your own clamps is soo nice, monetary good too. Mainly because under the right kind of shining light, you can get the stock materials for next to nothing. Example: from a friend i inherited 7 spring compressing kits, that's 14 Acme threads. Sure, they were a bit worn out, but for a F clamp, that's perfectly okay, which is corroborated by the fact that i've been using the home made clamps for so long now that i'm at the point where i have to replace the spine on a few of them because i whaled on them sooo much they're starting to curve, yet the threads are just as i have received them.
Your original heavy design is awesome for making short but very long reach/deep clamps. I made two a couple months ago for less than half the cost of just one Bessey 12" deep clamp.
Von B. Don't tell me that. I just ordered a couple 500mm deep Besseys last night. LOL. Even on sale they are very expensive. Less likely to rust though. This video has me considering the idea of home made clamps. It is quite well done, Cosmas.
What you could do is if you wanted to change the design of your F clamps by making them spread items as well as clamp all you need do is unloosing the fixed side then slide it up a bit drill a hole in the long section that way it still clamps but you can take the short bits off turn them around put them back together bolt back in ready to spread cool idea oh yea.
"Type metal-cutting saw blade into an online search engine..." Haha ;-) By the way, I came to your channel via Marius Hornberger, whose work I also really enjoy. Keep going, Cosmas! I am now contributing to you and Marius via Patreon. I get at least one American dollar's worth of enjoyment and education from your channel each month.
Классно , особенно лапка для зажима в рукоятке , очень мудро задумка с наконечником тоесть крутящей зажимной лапкой . 👍👍🇵🇼🙋 , лайк за труд , удачи в работе .
Cosmas, another excellent video, thank you! Top class workmanship, nicely finished and very entertaining. I'm super-excited about your belt grinder, can't wait for the video. Would you consider doing a 2 minute teaser, like a quick "tool-tour"? I hope the changes in your life your life you mentioned are positive, and wish you all the best with your Patreon account. Thanks again for entertaining and inspiring videos!
Great video! Just an idea for the padding discs: you could have used a hole cutter and then fill the pilot hole with a quick welding. Keep up the great work!
Tu inglés es muy bueno. Bastante claro y entendible para quienes hablamos español pero entendemos un poco el inglés bien pronunciado de acuerdo a la gramática. ¡¡Greetings!!
i have just started welding and i like the "chamfer the corners to give the welds more body" idea i wish i saw this video before i did my last welding job it might of turned out a bit less like a haemorrhoid and more like a weld
Try putting a bucket with water underneath the sander, so all the sparks and dust go into the water. Much easier to clean. Obviously, you need to secure it somehow so you don't tip it by accident. Besides that, nice work, as usual.

I think one of the best ideas out there making F clamps.. Great work bud.. Certainly gona steal your idea for this, Thank you

I took your advice and held my breath all day. Now I'm dead, thanks!

@@CosmasBauer, a channel called "the art of life" re-uploaded your vid.
hey kid, many older could learn from you. Absolutely marvelous job with clams.
I've seen many videos about F-Clamps..C-Clamps building. In my opinion this is the best of all. Congratulation!
Cooles Projekt, cooles Feuerwerk...und großartiger Humor. Dankeschön für die gute Unterhaltung 😃
Those are top quality clamps. I would be proud to own 25 of them. NEVER HAVE ENOUGH CLAMPS‼️👍👍 Vinny 🇺🇸
Best F clamp video I have ever seen. Will try to make a set! Thank you for the inspiration!
very well made bar clamps,last for year's, no doubt it gave you pleasure making them,gets my thumbs up.
IM-PEC-CABLE... Vous êtes plus qu'un professionnel... Félicitation Cosmas Bauer.
The clamps are great! Nice touch putting them on the rack at the end...
Very simple, strong and durable. Great work. Thumbs up young man.
Мне нравится твой подход к работе. Настоящий инженер😜
What a brilliant project once i get to my workshop tomorrow i will try to make some. You can never have enough clamps in my opinion Good luck from Ireland
Enviable work station and tools. Paradise.
How have I not known about your channel until now? So glad to find it, thanks for all the great content!
Excellent video. Good workmanship. Cheers from Michael. Australia.
This video puts me on the way to make my own clamps. Thanks
Really awesome build. Not that easy, not that difficult if you know what to do. Really like you start expressing your humorous side. :)
Красава! Приятно смотреть. В мастерской порядок. Классные получились струбцыны! Успехов тебе и интересных проэктов!

Nice build. Great sense of humor. Thanks.
not bad idea, soon i will built this kind of clamp equipment when i start building me a furnitures, thanks for your beautiful video,..
Рыжий, ты молодец!!! Respect!!! 👍👍👍
Hey Cosmas, continue making these videos!! You're such a nice guy. Hope you get that patreon suport really soon!
Well done mate. Excellent workmanship and one of the best videos I have seen in years. Keep up the good work and do us all a favor.

You are starting to be really funny. :D This is most enjoyable! Watched only one minute and already gave thumb up!
Really nice! This is gonna be one of the first project Ill do when I finally get into welding.
Same for me!!
EXCELLENT!
Also very well explained. Thank you.
Greetings from Mar del Plata, Argentina. (Translated with Google)
Very nice Cosmas. I can't wait to see the sander build.
really nice idea on the swivel ends of the clamp..

Excellent work, they will last a few lifetimes; how things should be built.
Congratulations . In my country when the guy is better in something We say: Voce é o cara! I´m brasilian.

One of the best homemade clamps

man that is one badass looking belt sander!!
Perfect my friend, just perfect, I am about to need a couple of this kind of clamps, but instead of buying them I am going to make them and by the way I am going to make sure I have good strong clamps I can relay on them. Thank you so much!!
Молодец! Классная конструкция, исполнение и подача материала!
I will bet I looked at a dozen videos today. THIS IS THE BEST!! "639 folks are going to suggest that," and " n7.05479... pounds" I laughed out loud on both!
Those clamps are awesome, I'm sure there'll last a lifetime. nice video.

Great idea! I've had a pair of spring compressors hogging up space in my box for years.
A man after my own heart! Every single pair of work gloves I have have AT LEAST on finger covered in duct tape!
because gloves are so expensive.. That makes sense to repair them
Nicely done! Those are six tough clamps!
Best video in "make clamps"
Your original heavy design is awesome for making short but very long reach/deep clamps. I made two a couple months ago for less than half the cost of just one Bessey 12" deep clamp.
Yes, I thought exactly the same! :D Cool that you made a couple of those!

Cosmas Bauer mirlene gomes
what about ideal ??
Thank you for putting that cross pin in; now I can sleep better at night.
Buenísimo ...una de las mejores ideas en cuanto a la cabeza giratoria k apreta,la verdad me ayudó este video ...felicidades
Cosmas, I enjoy watching your videos. You have a very creative mind and are extremely talented. tj
Echt geil geworden die Teile, wow!
u should put a cross pin in the handle for added strength
handdancin He did.
@ 13:15 you are one of the 639 who will complain about it.
handdancin I got your comedy mate 😀
Chad Voller ok
Great clamps, good explanation. Made on your example. Thanks for the video.
Mad skills. Duct tape finger glove, love it. Red-Green would be proud.
Excelente trabajo, felicitaciones espero empezar muy pronto los míos. Gracias.

Dude your work and explanation very good
You are good mate, as a welder and a fabricator.
Tidy, clean work, and excellent quality video.
Thank you for showing what you are going to do first.
nice professional looking clamps Buddy like you usually do with everything else in your videos
Классно , особенно лапка для зажима в рукоятке , очень мудро задумка с наконечником тоесть крутящей зажимной лапкой .
👍👍🇵🇼🙋 ,
лайк за труд , удачи в работе .
I'm going to call you Dr. FRANKENCLAMP for creating these beautiful clamp beasts. You are awesome.
Good job! I suggest you to put a piece of dense rubber on the top of the clamp. This avoids marks on clamped parts. Thanks for the video.
Dit zijn zeer mooie en heel goed gebouwde klemmen. Vakmanschap is Meesterschap. Klasse!!!
Молодец !! Настоящий Мужик !!!
That was a clean works of your hands 👍👏 but,, couldn't afford to buy welding machines or tools or I would have make it like yours 🤗👍.
Cosmas, another excellent video, thank you! Top class workmanship, nicely finished and very entertaining. I'm super-excited about your belt grinder, can't wait for the video.

Good job!!!! Nice piece of work. I will also make them according your guidelines.
amigo es usted un genio con tan maravillosa aportacion para los que practicamos la carpinteria felicitaciones
Wonderful work. Congratulations. And thanks for the idea…
Good ideas and excellent workmanship
I love your safety warnings
Gracias Cosmas, un abrazo desde San Juan Argentina
Tu inglés es muy bueno. Bastante claro y entendible para quienes hablamos español pero entendemos un poco el inglés bien pronunciado de acuerdo a la gramática. ¡¡Greetings!!
Great work ! Belt grinder liked me !
I really like the new style of the videos!
nicht schlecht! die werden bestimmt noch n paarmal vererbt.
A handy tip is to weld a nut at the base of the handle incase you need to tighten extra with a shifter spanner
i have just started welding and i like the "chamfer the corners to give the welds more body" idea i wish i saw this video before i did my last welding job it might of turned out a bit less like a haemorrhoid and more like a weld
