Editorial Review:
The Single Clamp is a simple and straight forward tool. Most commonly used as a straight edge guide for making clean cuts with your circular saw and router. Other uses include but not limited to; a fence for a table saw and drill press.
The E. Emerson Tool Company A-50 All-in-One 50-Inch Grip Clamp Guide uses edge to edge clamps that are quickly adjustable and low profile, unobtrusive jaws to secure wood while staying out of your way. The tall, wide jaws provide flexibility, and the jaw holes accept steel jaw teeth for use on steel tables, and the scale ruler can be used for metric or inch measurements. The built-in T-track accommodates all manner of accessories, such as router plates, stop blocks, and jigs. The clamp thickness matches 3/4-inch plywood sheets, and a micro-adjustable stop provides superior precision in a tool given 5 stars by Popular Woodworking magazine.

Worth the money in the time it saves.:
I purchased this a few weeks ago (from Amazon) with the wide jaws because of the recommendations here. I agree buy the jaw set, in fact I think they should just be sold as one unit. I am very pleased and did not have any problems using the tool. It sure beats using a board and clamps.
The distance from the edge of my saw's baseplate to the blade is not a nice even number. I made a little story stick (which I tend to misplace between projects) for this as I never remember the setting and would have to... more info
I like the Tru-Grip stuff a bit better:
Decent design, but it doesn't always clamp very straight. Therefore, you end up with a less that squarecut. I wouldn't use this for cutting down the length of a door if you're going for square. Decent for the price, though I'd rather pay more for the Tru-grip models.
Best Guide I Ever Bought:
I have been thinking about getting one of these for a long time. I finally ordered the 50" & 24" the 50" came today & it is the best guide I have ever bought. I will definitly get the 99" & 36".
Good for ripping:
This is great for ripping 4'x8' sheets of plywood. Ignore any of the recommended accessories except for the wide jaws. The saw and router guides are really cheap and you really don't need them anyway.
