A customer gave me these. I don’t know if they are still in business.
They are much better panel clamps than these It comes apart and makes it easier if they are a little stuck The pin is stainless and the thumb screw has a brass insert, so you don’t have to worry about stripping the threads on the pin |

Looks pretty easy to retro fit the regular square ones with a DIY copper bar...

Just made my first patch panel using the Fitzzee method as seen on YouTube. Took about 1.5 hours and looks fuggin great!
Appears to fit like a champ. Perfectly replicates the original. That is the corner on the front valence on my Datsun 510 race car. Can’t wait to weld it in using his clampless butt welding technique. That guy is incredible. What amazes me is not only how good this came out, but it is the first patch panel I ever made! Would never been able to do it without Fitzzee videos. Attached image(s) |
