Thanks! This is super, but would be perfect with options for a nut tap and screw hole counterbore to eliminate the exposed bolt ends. If only I had the SCAD skills...

Great! I tried to make such clamps, some months ago, but never got something usefull... You design is really good! Thanks for sharing.

This is a very clever thing! I'm amazed it hasn't been featured.

Thanks,
I saw this somewhere, I tried to reproduce it.
