Wooden Handscrew Clamps can be used in so many ways. Hold downs, as normal clamps, can cut to hold round objects like dowels or pipe and used with other modications like pins.

The handscrews, used properly make a great and easily repeated holding system for workpieces. The Rockler handscrews are good quality. The half price was the ultimate incentive.

I have a box joint jig and securing the workpiece with a screw clamp works very well.

Been looking to increase clamp selection. Watched Stumpy Nubs recommended review and decided to go with these.
BOB M on Apr 19, 2017
They are decent quality for the price.

I need the clamps to help hold the material that I'm working on when drilling or shaping smaller parts and for glue up.

Because they were on sale and you can never have enough clamps.
Derek R on Apr 16, 2017
Handscrew clamps are often overlooked. They are extremely versatile and because the jaws can be angled they can clamp projects which are very difficult for conventional style clamps. Handscrew clamps also have a deeper reach than most shop clamps. I have other Rockwell handscrew clamps; the quality is very good. The sale price on these made it difficult to pass up getting a couple more.
james w on Apr 13, 2017
This is one of the most misunderstood clamps/products. Not easy to master, but can be a versatile tool. Been looking for a good deal on all sizes. Like Rockler products and thought the 8" clamp at this price was a good deal.

Do not have any wooden handscrew clamps. Haven't used any since high school shop class. Liked them then, thought I could use a set.
Gregory T on Apr 10, 2017
Didn't have this size yet. Good clamps.
Will I on Apr 10, 2017
Something I need at a price (on sale) low enough that I don't have to make it myself.
That's not always the case.
I'm sure that the quality will be excellent.
Bruce L. J on Apr 10, 2017
I have been wanting one of these clamps. The sale price prompted me to purchase.

Robert S on Jun 18, 2017
Are these hand clamps easy to screw?
Ben R on Jan 19, 2016
BEST ANSWER: The handles are easy to turn, but you have to turn both of them close to the same amount to get a good even pressure. They are not as simple as many other claims to use, but they provide a nice clamping surface and pressure.

I'm a woodworking hobbiest. I had several other types of clamps but no wooden handscrew clamps. I'd read the reviews before and was concerned with the quality but when Rockler offered the 12" clamps at half price I decided to buy a couple. I can say that I'm very happy with the clamps. The wood is free of knots and nicely finished. The screws are sharp with minimal play. They'll definitely do the job. I also bought the rubber hand grips since I have some arthritis in my hands. They do make it easier to grip the handles. As I went on line to enter this review I noticed that the 10" clamps are on sale. I just bought 2 of them.

These are excellant hand screws of the best quality at the best price, especially when you buy them on sale. How can you beat two for one? The acme screw is sharp and clear and the wood of the best quality. I've bought other 'cheaper' quality hand screws before and the differance really shows in the screw definition. Rockler's hand screws ROCK!

Very sturdy clamps and are at a super price. Although they do not clamp down as tight as the more expensive Jorgenson brand. Not sure if Jorgenson uses a finer treaded rod or machined smoother or higher quality metal.
February 3, 2013
OK but can do better
I was fairly happy with these clamps until I was clamping a project that required lots of clamping. I had these interspersed with Jorgensen clamps and the Rockler clamps did not apply the same amount of pressure - I could not tighten the Rockler clamps as tight as the others.

For the price they are ok, I was disappointed that the wood used to make the clamp jaws had knots.

The wood is not clear and the fit and finish on the hardware is bad. Back to Jorgensen clamps. Again, you get what you pay for.

Very disappointed, especially after reading prior reviews. The clamps will not bite strong enough to even stay on my clamp cart. When you let off the screw handle they back off a solid 1/4 turn. I hope I just received two duds. I am going to send them back to Rockler and I am confident they will make it right.
