SplinterGroup commented about 6 hours ago My "originals" are suffering from arthritis in the threads on the working ends. Too much cranking down tight and too little lube over the years. Seems I recall being able to buy the business ends of the Revos somewhere as well?
I loved the original and didn't hold back when building my clamp empire. When the REVO was released, I bought a few long ones, but when I found out about just the jaws, I upgraded all my long ones, except for the short ones that were never an issue.
You a (ex-) plumber? I'd be scared of over "glue squeeze out" when I apply the "plumber white knuckled force" on my clamps. I've found that unless the work is distorted and needs to be aligned, I just apply small force and let the glue do it's thing.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
