I even paid extra to get the longer ones.

Just remove the plastic thingy that if you’re anything like me you’re gonna lose anyway?
You lose things on purpose before you lose them on accident, in order to retain a semblance of agency in your life?
If you say the word “CLAMP!” it sounds pretty funny. You can say it anywhere, it will always be a pretty funny word. CLAMP.
CLAMP CLAMP CLAMP.
You see?
Clamp!
…oh my god what have i done
Claaaaaaaaaammmmmmmp!
I actually don’t think I get it. Is the handle backwards? 🤔
It’s about 4mm too short. It’s a classic trope with clamps - you never have enough of them or the right one.
TIL clamps have tropes.
Ahhhh, fair enough, I don’t DIY often enough to know the tropes lol
I believe it might be one of the fundamental truths of the Buddha… You never have the correct number or types of clamps. Yet always have seemingly too many clamps to justify buying more.
This is absolutely true. I have 1.5 meter pipe clamps as well but the first time I tried using them ended up the same way: not long enough.
Classic mistake.
You need to label them as 1 meter pipe clamps so the work thinks it can get away with being 1.1 meters, but then at the last second you rip off the label and yell “SURPRISE, IT’S ACTUALLY LONG ENOUGH!”
When all you have is a clamp, everything looks like a clamp.
Get a second clamp and daisychain them.
The solution is always more clamps
Always has been.
Clamp extenders
Drill out the stop, that’s certainly a decision you won’t regret for as long as you own the clamp.
Take the rubber protectors off one/both ends, toss a thin cloth in there.

I did, but lets not talk about that.
Hahahahaha
Pipe clamps ftw. Brick wall started falling down on my house, got 30ft of pipe and clamped it down. Problem solved
Problem solved
“paid extra” at the place that sells 50¢ hot dogs
The price difference would’ve bought me 8 hot dogs!
Go buy a clamp stretcher. Life changing!
