A double-bar wooden clamp consisting of 8 parts.
a- A wooden bar with an elliptical cross-section. On one end, there is a short rectangular section with a rectangular hole running through the height. On the other end, there is a similar rectangular section with a large rectangular hole that runs along the height but does not emerge on the other side. This section has the number "1" stamped into it. The rectangular section is followed by a rounded handle at the end.
b- The second bar is identical to the first (a). On the rectangular end, there is a metal bar that is secured into the wood with a washer and a nut, and cannot be removed by hand.
c- A wooden handle associated with (a). It has a circular cross-section and a flat end. It tapers slightly toward the other end. The other end is flat with a threaded hole to fit onto a screw. A thin sheet of brass covers the neck of this end.
d- A metal piece consisting of a flat rectangular section connected to a threaded rod. This fits through the rectangular end of bar (a) and connects to handle (c).
e- A small metal piece shaped like a rectangle with a triangle cut out of a short end. It fits into (d) and is secured by (f).
f- A bolt with a circular handle. The handle is concavely curved on both faces to create an ergonomic grip.
g- A small metal plate shaped like a rectangle with a triangle cut out of the short edge. It fits into the metal piece on (b). A hole near the centre allows it to be screwed in place by (h).
h- A small bolt with a circular head. It fits into the metal bar in (b) and (g).
These clamps fit perfectly together and are used to apply pressure over a long length of material. They are designed to pull towards each other, using screws to adjust and tighten their position. They are particularly useful for gluing panels together, distributing pressure over the pieces while they dry.
