$19.99

Use the Bessey right angle clamp for clamping square corners at a precise 90 degrees. The right angle clamp is ideal for holding parts to be screwed or glued together. The clamp's maximum opening is 7/8" on one side and 2-1/2" on the other side for members of different thicknesses and 1-3/4" for members of equal thicknesses. Maximum thickness at the joint is 1-1/8". $19.99 + tax. I ordered 4 and got free shipping.

If the code doesn't apply use coupon code V91040

I can order 2 to get free shipping with coupon code: V91040. But I am not sure spend $20 each clamp. Amazon sell much cheaper.

Looks to be $24 on HomeDepot.com. So about 20% cheaper or so

You're not slow…it is cumbersome and slow to setup. There are better ways to square and clamp joining boards.

Bessey clamps are good and all, but I can't really see myself buying these. I mean, they don't actually apply any clamping pressure to the glue joint; seem kind of pointless. Maybe if you are following up with some screws, but who does that?

I want to see a corner clamp that provides pressure to the corner joint. That'd be cool. Do you hear me Bessey, a corner clamp that actually clamps. Is that doable?

Agreed. I bought 4 of them a year ago and I have never been able to get them to work satisfactorily.

The point is to keep the angle at 90 degrees while you join them. And I'm inclined to believe screws are quite popular for joining together pieces of wood.
