Good little clamps.
For me these clamps worked very well. They held the planking very well and are simple to use. They made planking go a lot faster.When you assemble them you just have to be a bit cautious. They will break easily until you get them put together. Once together they are strong. I plan on buying several more sets of them as I can afford them.

Absolute Junk
Assembly required is right! First cut the mismatched parts from the stencils. Then, following directions for a much easier version (that don't at all work for this), prepare for frustration and glued fingertips. I assembled my first one, looked at the quality. It looked like crap. I tried the thumbscrew, and of course it spins freely when tightening the wingnut, meaning it lacks clamp pressure. This is junk. Stay away. I'm making my own out of MDF.

Not Easy To Assemble
After you get them assembled, they work OK, but they are a considerable amount of work to assemble. I rather spend my time on my model rather than building tools.

As Advertised...
The clamps will be easy for any modeler to assemble and they work as expected and advertised. Planking a wooden model ship requires multiple tacking points and these make it easier. What I like best is that you can position these clamps and still (usually) have space to work around them as you attach more planks. This was not possible when using larger clamps and the plank wood does not get damaged as is often the case when using the small, black metal "alligator" type clamps for paper that many hobbyists use.

Did not work.
Did not work correctly. Poor idea. Pins hold the planks better. Needs improvement..

DON'T WASTE YOUR $$$
Caution! these are build-ups, you have to make them! and it does not mention that IN THEAD! These little guys are very LOW QUALITY IMO and not very easy to build up! This product needs a total redesign! they are not even symmetrically shaped! Needs to be made out of a thick piece of composite material or thick hobby ply instead of 4 separate pieces to glue together. ALSO, MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY BREAK EASILY!Most Model Shipways items are good but not this one!This product needs a total redesign! Great concept but POOR Quality design.
