Gary's Clamp (Swanstrom NR5000)

The Swanstrom Tools Gary’s Clamp, invented by Gary Hutchinson, is a precision-engineered tool designed to securely hold and manipulate metal stampings, disc-cut pieces, and other flat sheet materials. Made from machined aluminum, this clamp allows for precise and ergonomic handling, making it ideal for sawing, shaping, and other metalworking tasks. Key Features Four movable clamping fingers securely hold stampings while allowing for easy adjustments. Target plate aids in centering discs within the clamp for precise cutting. Ergonomic design reduces hand strain when working with small parts. Rotatable shape makes it easy to work on various shapes and sizes. Steel clamping screws with Delrin washers prevent surface marring. Target Plate Design The Delrin target plate helps center discs within the clamp. Unlike traditional plates with crosshairs or concentric rings, this design allows the human eye to naturally align objects without visual confusion. Users who prefer additional markings can create their own erasable guide lines using a felt-tipped marker.
