How to make a clip yourself

Using such a vice, it is very convenient and reliable to clamp small parts. And in order for our clamp to automatically unclench when the nut is unscrewed, we can put the bolt inward, put a spring between the hinges. It does not need to be taken very powerful, so that without much difficulty it allows you to clamp the necessary details.

The same device it is very convenient to use for gluing parts together, processing a small piece of plywood, if it is necessary that the materials are pressed tightly against each other.

Let's watch the video homemade:



For work it is necessary:
- a small door hinge;
- a bolt;
- nut - “lamb”;
- screwdriver;
- pliers.


Clamp do it yourself made simple enough. We take the door hinge, which should have 3 holes on each side. We connect both its edges and drill one hole under the bolt, if you do not have a small one that can fit into the existing holes.

We insert the bolt into the hole prepared for it and, on the other hand, clamp it with the “wing” nut. To clamp objects to the maximum, you can use a screwdriver and pliers.

The most elementary clip from improvised materials is ready.

Now we can test it, for this we take two materials that we need to glue. We apply glue on their surface, apply it to each other. Then we open our clamp, insert the materials to be glued there and with the help of the “lamb” nut and bolt we clamp. Tighten with pliers and a screwdriver. Now we wait until the glue hardens.

We unscrew the “lamb” nut from the bolt with the same tools and check how firmly the glue holds the glued materials.
