Simple c-clamp rack

[royce]

Just got this lagged to the wall this morning.
I'll move this to another locate later, so I did not bother welding the pipe to the brackets.
Simple, quick and handy.

Can never have enough clamps !

Can never have enough clamps !

Amen to that Jeeps

I took a tally today, trying to figure out which ones to hang on this rack and here is what I came up with.

46 ea forged c-clamp
29 ea malleable c-clamp
35 ea quick grip
18 ea vise grip
28 ea pipe clamp
9 ea bar clamp
14 ea hand screws
30 ea or so small clamps

I ended up just hanging some of the forged ones I use the most.

Now this may seem excessive to some, but they all have their different application and it is not uncommon to use 40 to 60 glueing up the gunwales on a boat.

A different approach, but it is so nice to have access to all your clamps.

Not having any wall or floor space left, I had to resort to a smaller compact setup.. Works OK most of the time.

I like both of those.
I'm going to copy one of them. Not sure which one though.

You have a lot of clamps. Good idea to get them out of your box and organized.

Thanks Larry G and tarbellb.
I'm looking at a bakery rack, thinking it may make a good start for rolling rack.

Royce, I love the fact that its rusty! I really have to force myself to put a paint job on anything, except hand tools and clamps which get sprayed yellow. You should go ahead and send those 10R Vise Grips to me since they already match mine!

I'm with you Firstram,
I like to see the iron and Mother Nature puts on a finish without compare

Royce, nice job as usual! I did a similar rack under my welding table using one piece of rebar from leg to leg on each end. Simple, but effective. I have enough clamps that it is hard to see the rebar.

Looks good Sir
I clamped a few clamps to the bakery rack, to get some ideas on layout.
Thanks

[Richard Cranium]

some nice clamp racks there, thanks for sharing

 

[tarbellb]

I would lean towards putting the heavier clamps down low, that and most used easiest to get to.

 

[royce]

Thanks Richard

I'm with you Tarbellb,
I also would like slots for them all, it drives me nuts needing to clamp them every time they are put up.
