Miter Spring Clamps - 12 Pack

It is really easy to use and provides outstanding results.

This is one of my favorite tool purchases ever. As an amateur, I would get really frustrated trying to do miter joints. They would always slip when I tried to nail them, and no matter how hard I tried, nothing in my repertoire of clamps would squeeze it just right to make the joint tight. Screw-type corner clamps are a pain and don't work on everything. These little guys work fantastic; they make the joint tight, they allow a little adjustment once it's clamped, and they're easy to take on and off.They do leave a small hole, with the size depending on what type of wood you're using. It is much smaller than a nail hole and I have never had any issues with it.The pliers are a great addition and well worth the money also.

As a trim carpenter I use these almost every day. I believe that these are one of the best ways to hold the outside corners of trim while installing. They do leave a small hole behind, however in most cases this is smaller then the hole left by the nails. I have other carpenters ask me on a regular basis where I got these after they see how well they work for the job. I have even had painters that liked them because using these and glue on an outside corner no nails are required to keep the corner tight. Just leave the clamp on long enough for the glue to set and you will get a perfect miter. For that reason i recommend the 12 pack because you can leave the clamps on your corners while continuing to work on other corners.You can use these by hand but it is a bit difficult. I highly recommend buying the Collins Tool Miter Spring Clamp Pliers, they make these clamps alot easier to work with and you can get more tension on the corner which will give you a better finished product

Very easy to use and very efective!!

Pretty good clamp. Minimal surface damage from the pointed ends. Does a good job off holding 45 degree cuts for glue to dry. They allow minor adjustments in your corners. They are not strong enough to close a bad cut corner but are good for holding them in place.

ease of use

They work as they should, but they just don't have enough clamping force to really be useful. I've tried them a couple times for gluing ripped mitered column wraps, but ended up going with blue tape as has worked for me before. Fool me twice... Maybe they're better for small items?

These are a must have for assembling outside corners. They apply a lot of good clamping pressure till your glue sets up. They also tremendously speed up alignment of your joint. More notably with crown molding these clamps will hold your outside corners right where they need to be until you can nail off your crown. I also use these two pre-assemble crown molding on a table before installing on cabinetry. These will save you a lot of time and joints will come out crisper with less nail holes.
