Simple and effective
Simple and easy to use at a price that makes it crazy not to buy. The lever that locks the clamp in place is very simple and may need some elbow grease (it is just plastic on plastic using friction). The notches on the clamp jaws are a nice touch, but I expect them to be a bit fiddly at times. The plastic shouldn't mar surfaces, but I will use some rubber/felt barrier if I think it would be a problem. The hold is fine for my purpose - holding models in place while glue dries and increasing pressure to lessen gaps.
Wish I had found these sooner!

I bought a 1/16 Corvette kit and the only flaw in the kit was that the crossbar was broken. I never would have gotten it glued together properly without these clamps. The crossbar is delicate and thanks to where the break occurred it couldn't hold much weight. The clamps are the perfect size and light enough to hold the crossbar without putting undue stress on the part being glued. They held tight without slipping. I removed the clamp a few hours late and the piece was solidly glued in place and had not slipped.
Good Hold?
4 stars is because cement will stick to the clamp. If not careful, the clamp might become one with the parts being assembled. The clamps work well. They do not clamp very tightly which has been a problem with my stronger clamps. There is a V-groove to handle cylindrical parts such as the muffler in my photos. I would have two more of these. The cement problem is definitely a problem but I can beat that.
Works Great and Made in USA
These clamps allow you to use the right amount of pressure without putting too much stress on the plastic. They are made in the USA which is a plus. I have found myself using these clamps a lot.
A Step up from Clothespins
Clothespins are great for a beginner, but these affordable clamps are better at the pesky tasks of airplane hulls and wings. Such a good deal I got an extra set for my father.
handy clamp's.
these will get a lot of use. will be nice when building structure's and need to hold wall's together. a 1-2-3 block and these clamp's will do the trick.
Good tool
These clamps work really well. Good quality product and at a reasonable price. I have a few of these and bought more because they work.
Very Useful
Great little clamps , I have 4 and going to get more . I do a lot of plane kits , and they work great on wings and such .
Small. Plastic. Clamp
Sometimes you just need extra things to help you hold parts together. Easy to use holds pretty good
Good Clamp
Works very well for gluing plastic structures. Clamps are light weight and does not tip what you are gluing.
not too good.
personally, I don't like how these clamp they are cheap enough. I do not like these clamps
