Editorial Review:
The Bessey General Purpose Kit includes an array of clamps needed in the professional or home shop. Included in this kit are two 2" spring clamps, two 4" general purpose bar clamps, two 6" medium purpose tradesmen bar clamps, two 8" medium purpose tradesmen bar clamps and two 3/4" pipe clamps. For those looking to get started or those adding to an existing collection, this is an exceptional value from Bessey.
This is probably the absolute best collection, whether you're buying your first clamps and building your first project or you're a seasoned woodworker who clearly knows to look for the Bessey name. (It also makes the perfect gift for the woodworker and do-it-yourselfer.)
In this set, you'll be getting a nice array of Bessey Tradesmen bar clamps: a pair each of four-, six- and eight-inch models. The two nickel-plated steel spring clamps are some of the best we've used, with a flawless grip and, like all Besseys, a non-marring surface.
Finally, for those big projects, the pipe clamp fittings will do the trick. These will fit your 3/4-inch pipes and turn them into the finest clamps you'll ever use. They're all easy to use, hold like they'll never let go, are gentle on the projects you've spent so much time and effort on and they'll last as long as you do. Even longer. Price these individually, and you'll find out what a great deal this is. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Love this clamp kit:
Bought these from Amazon in 2006 and love them ever since. These clamps are sturdy and quick to use. I accidentally left them near the lawn for a few days while working on a project. No rusting. I'd highly recommend them.
A clamp for every project, a project for every clamp:
This clamp set comes with a very good variety of basic clamps, especially useful if you don't have any clamps at all and are just starting out. Yes, you can buy cheaper ones, but you really get what you pay for - especially with tools, and I think these are a great investment that you would get a lot of use of for any diy-er project!
Excellent Value:
Naturally you can never have enough clamps. This is a great kit to get some of the smaller clamps you need for a good price. Bessey makes good quality clamps as well.
As good as it gets:
I bought these on a whim simply because they were on sale. I now wish I had ordered 10 sets, whenever I need to clamp something under 8" or so, I ALWAYS grab these first. Wait for them to go on sale and pick up as many sets as you need, or can afford, you will not be disappointed.
