I built a cabinet today using all three Kreg products. I am very impressed. Construction was very fast and accurate. <br /> <br />The RAC made it very easy to attach a solid wood edging to the plywood top and attaching the sides to the top. In fact a couple times I thought it would be nice to have 2. <br /> <br />The KHC made the face frame assembly quick and easy. The joints separated slightly while driving the screw but pulled together well and stayed flush. <br /> <br />It has been a long time since I have been this pleased with a tool. The Kreg system is going to change how I assemble projects. I just bought a K2 jig and both the KHC RAC right angle clamp and the KHC premium face clamp.

It has been a long time since I have been this pleased with a tool. The Kreg system is going to change how I assemble projects.

Wish the post end were a little thinner to fit in the hole easier, but it does hold the pieces at right angles. I'm new to Kreg Jigs and think it is a great system. Just takes practice to see how it best works for you. Glad I have this tool. Great tool.

(I built my own pair long before they started selling them). There are two things wrong with this clamp. <br />1. The adjust screw is badly machined and binds. <br />2. The rubber handles are too big and tend to turn and slip when applying pressure. <br /> <br />For it's intended use,, it works great.

It provides a 'third hand' to hold pieces while they are joined. You may need two or more of these for longer pieces. Well made and holds tight. I needed this for a specific application.

For the same money, you might as well buy these for the extra comfort, particularly if you are doing a lot of carcasses. As I said in my review of the original, there is simply no substitute for these, and they work exceptionally well. <br /> <br />The original may be found here: <br /> <br />Kreg RAC Right Angle Clamp The major difference between this and Kreg’s original version (still available) is the handle padding, though this version does away with the inner vice-grip release lever also (it’s not really necessary).
