nice clamps Reuben. Suggest you put a bolt through the glued-up neck of the clamp, for longevity, otherwise they'll pull apart one day when you tighten up and need it most!

Good idea I need to make few more for the bass bar

Is that Bass Bar in with the grain up and down or at an angle to the grain? I can't tell from these pictures. Also, how thick is that Bar?

May be u can see the bass bar grain better in this picture:



The bass bar grain is parallel to the top grain,

I have to shave the hump a little to do the edges, anyways it will be replace by a new bar.

I will tell you later how tick it is
