Step One: Cutting
Such a clamp can be made of PVC pipes of different diameters. In this case, the author used a 10 cm pipe. Cuts a ring 3 cm wide.
Clamps the ring in a vise and cuts it.
Step Two: Holes
Makes four holes. Two at a distance of 2.5 cm and two at a distance of 11.5 cm from the site of the cut.
Step Three: Clamp Assembly
For this clamp, two rods 18 cm long were used. The diameter of the rods is equal to the diameter of the holes. Inserts rods into holes. If the rods are not inserted tightly sits them on the glue.
The clamp is ready, now you can try it in work.
If you need a more powerful clamp then one more ring is added.
