clamps for a thick beam?
« on: February 04, 2010, 05:50:06 PM »
im looking for solutions to clamp to big beams.  i've got the bogen C clamp, but find that it does not get wide enough for my needs on occasion. 

im sure some of you crafty folk out there have come up with solutions. i'd love to see them.

thanks,
luke

or something very similar. drill a hole at the very end and a nut so you can then screw in your shock/mount system.
Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

The rafters of a club we frequent is 3 2x6 in the DFC spot.  So roughly 6"
