Easy Miter Clamps

Read about it here:

Nothing hard about this one and it's very effective for getting miters like this lined up exactly. With a tight, well fitting joint, nothing more than spring clamp pressure is needed to clamp the joint.
A third one can be used on the inside corner to help line up the faces of the miters.
Very handy!

how genius is that! I really like john's solution and most of the time I don't watch the videos to be focused on the project, but to steal the ideas abd methods. you are really thinking out of the box here, two mini bar clamps can be used as a corner clamp. simply brilliant!

[simmonsbilt]

I can't believe the ideas you come up with. So simple but genius.

[dawgpoundbutch]

I like the fact that they give my already versatile spring clamps one more purpose. Thanks John.

Geez... there you go again... thinking outside of the box.  Well done John!

This is SO beautifully elegantly simple... We owe you MONEY John.
I'm sending some your way!

Just today I was struggling with my 3 frames, wrap around straps, square and C clamps. I sit down to relax and find your video-- wondering why do I do things the hard way when this is so simple!! I know what I'm making tomorrow. Thanx again and again John.

[dnngskn]

Great design John. This is one many of us can use.

[BradleyMakesThings]

That's pretty neat, John! Seen the glue block approach but now you don't have to glue them. Good stuff!

[brainsironically]

That's freakin' brilliant! Holy smoke. I honestly wonder why I've never seen this before, it makes so much sense.

[johnconklin]

Kinda like the edge clamps they use making string instruments. Very clever.

That little sled at the beginning is genius. How have I never seen one of those?
