Most Useful/Best Clamps for building a stripper?

[Cruiser]

You make some really good points, Brian! I had considered some of these, like recurved tumblehome making it useless, but it's funny how a person can just completely not consider some simple element of a system sometimes: I hadn't even considered the issues of getting glue on the straps! That would be such a mess potentially. I wonder about a material that would make a simple sleeve over the strap, to protect it. Maybe inner tube strips passed over the webbing? Or just taped sleeves cut from heavy contractor plastic bags. I wonder.

Absolutely agree about the epoxy for the strips: that stood out to me immediately as well. Seems like a TON of extra work for an unnecessary gain.

I like seeing the range of methods out there. I need to buy some inner tube, because I picked up 22 clamps to turn into Jimmy Clamps a few days ago.

Also, I did go over clamping methods I have tried and what I feel is needed in my current build, you can find those pictures and musings here :

Stripping Part 1 Since this is a staple less build, some of the clamping solutions need to get creative. Whenever there is a concave section, as it is here,it is never an easy day, find it is best to not short cut and just work out some decent supports. There is no question, building stapleless...
