I have only used these clamps a few times so far but can honestly say they have made the process of glueing up and clamping a number of boards much easier and quicker. I use to spend considerable time glueing up boards, applying calls to maintain a flat surface and then making sure I get the Calls off before the squeezed out glue made them stick to the boards. So far I have found that the glue does not stick to the clamps which is an added bonus. Good Job SpeTool
I put off getting one of these for a long time, unconvinced they could handle router planing serious hardwood since top quality smaller solid bits I owned struggled with it. But wow do they work. Mowing through endless board feet in a fraction of the time I was taking before. And we're talking about some of the hardest woods in North America - pecan, mesquite, and south Texas red oak (which is seemingly as dense and harder than live oak).
These work great, but on large glue ups you need 2 sets. Buy more
Right out of the box it cuts perfectly and leaves a fantastic finish. Make sure to periodically turn the carbide inserts for a longer lasting bit.
First class product for the price. I’ll be returning to the shop.
