Greetings from Canada.
A bar clamp from rebar eh? That is wacky and very ingenious. Congrats on a good design too.
Bob
I have a lot of rusted rebrad that i couldn't just throwaway, i wanted to get rid of it the right way :D , i guess that was the source of the ingenuity.
Thank you Bob!
Very clever way to make these clamps. These would be something I would use outside where something has to be clamped for several days (and in the rain) and avoid rusting my expensive shop clamps.
I just saw your comment on the video. Thank you Paul Jones!!
Hola DIYer, realmente muy sencilla la prensa y económica de hacer, pero para mi hay un poco de falta de seguridad en esa amoladora que no tiene protección, recuerda que las manos son las mejores herramientas, hasta pronto.:thumbsup:

This is a hard award to win. First of all, you're competing with everyone who built a tool over the entire past month, as opposed to a Tool of the Week win, which is already difficult enough. And building is not enough; you have to document everything meticulously, before and during the build. It's become so competitive that you need a lot of text explanation, pictures, and videos to be considered. To win it three times is very admirable.
Here are all of your Best Documented Build winning tools:

Good job. Thanks! Over my whole life I have found myself in many different countries away from civilization. Things like your re-bar clamp are the things that allow you to .....get by.
