    In this video I talk about the large F clamps which I built. I made a set of 4 and they have come in useful on some of my other projects.

    Question!
    For the sliding member, is the hole is just a straight rectangular hole? It maintains position during clamping by virtue of opposing corners catching (digging in) on the long bar?
