Spiral clamps
I, like a lot of others, have admired Bob's spiral clamps so when I spotted these as a job lot on German ebay for a (relatively) good price I thought great- I'd love to have some of them. I expected to swap over a T-nut as my mill table has 18mm slots and be flying, but no. The T-nuts have a long stem on them and although I could make new ones it would be a job I don't have time for at the moment and probably take a while to do too. Then I thought that as the nuts were for a 12mm slot, I could use them on my rotary table. I had that out today and discovered a second no - as well as the slot on the table being smaller, the clamps are big enough that if they are on the table there is not much room left for anything else. Back to the nuts and clamp kit...

Anyway, I would now like to sell these on so I don't have to look at them every time I walk in the shed. There is 1x 0-15-45 clamp, 3x 30-75 clamps and 2x 60-135 clamps, suitable for a mill with 12mm or 1/2" T-slots. All but one have 'SP' on the bolt heads (the one that doesn't has the recess for the label but no label). I would like to recoup my outlay, so the asking price is $480 (which was purchase plus postage), but I will include postage for them within Australia at that price.
