Summary

The only durable part in spring clamps is the spring. Even my trusty (pricey?) Wolfcraft clamps finally fail after several years of service. Planned obsolescence ? Maybe. What if we can make stronger parts with long lasting as goal ?

Jaws opening <60mm (2"3/8).

2x handles (3d printed)
2x pivot jaws (3d printed)
1x Reclaim spring from broken spring clamp
