welcome to  the Clampits  ;-)

 

"We had do hold him down; he didn't want to take his medicine."

Quite a yard sale of holding devices you have there.

The worst part is that I had to move it outside - there was no way to distinguish this mess from the mess on my work bench!!!!

Hey - on the bright side - now you guys know what to get me for my birthday!!!!!

"Dammit, Jim! I'm a doctor, not a miracle worker!"
I think I see a spot with no clamp on it!

Yep - 2nd spot up just to the right of the parts tray!!!!! I was hoping I could sneak past with that one!!!
I was thinking of using a pair of channel locks and an elastic band but gave that a second thought!!

you can never have too many clamps ! (-:

That's a really nice area for working in there, good one

Hey Thanx Kid - If I could combat the darn mosquitos it would be total paradise!!! That's the driveway at my shop, like I said, it's such a mess I had to take the picture outside.
I should post a pic of that and see what the captions would be!!!!

OK - I've been away for a few days but I've got my experiments done - the "clamp porcupine" eventually turned into one of these (left). The acoustic sound is pretty good, the electric is still a work in progress. So far I've used a piezo in the neck parallel with one foam taped to the pan. Any suggestions??
