Modified "Stronghand" F-Style Clamp
    Robert McMahon, Knoxville, Tenn.: “I needed a large hold-down clamp on my welding bench for fabrication work, so I made one by modifying a ‘Stronghand’ F-style clamp.
    “Start with a 1 by 2-in. piece of channel iron or flat bar and drill a hole for your hold-down bolt. Then weld the channel iron or flat bar to the bottom of the clamp. It’ll result in a super strong hold-down clamp that you can still use as a C-clamp or spreader. Other brands of clamps could be modified as well, but I find that Stronghand F-style clamps work the best.”
