Russell,
The clamping system you're looking for is made by JLT Clamps in
Poughkeepsie,NY. Their web site is www.jltlancasterclamps.com. They make a
heavy unit called the Panel Clamp in various sizes and configurations, and a
lighter version called the Redi-Clamp, geared towards small shops and
hobbyists, and it is this version that allows the clamps to hang down when
not in use. JLT has been around for a long time and is one of the mainstays
of the furniture and cabinetmaking industry when it comes to clamping.
Hope this helps,
Paul LaPierre

I looked in the past few Fine Woodworking magazines and did not see
the advertisement I recall from the past. I would have to look
through older issues but mine are elsewhere. I am pretty sure the
JDL clamps are a panel making "system". There are racks which the
clamps hang from. Put the panel to be glued in 2 or 3 of the clmaps
hanging on the rack. Tighten the clamps and then let the racks hand
down to make room for more panels.

Are JDL clamps the ones in the black and white ad in the back of
Fine
Woodworking I believe with a picture of them on a rack? Sort of
resemble Plano except hanging out horizontally instead of
vertically. I think I saw some of them sold at a molding factory
auction back in 1996.

Phil-ip a while back you wanted to know about clamps and were
looking at
Bessey.
A buddie of mine bought JDL. I saw them last night and they are
a
true
commercial grade clamp. There is one company out of Canada that
has
more
beef but the price goes way up. These JDL's were about the
price
of a
Bessey. They are 2.5 times the beef of a Bessey. They really
belong
hanging
off a rack for space but they lay down flat without any blocks,
like the
Bessey, due to the fact they use a twin beam design. The twin
beam
gives you
the lay flat feature and gives incrediable torque down power
without lateral
twist. Even the handle had twin hand grabs so you and the wife
can
squeeze
out all the glue. My friend has both Bessey and JDL but the big
stuff goes
to JDL.
