what's the name of this clamp and where to get it in the UK

[Lee Roberts]

These are often called "Kant Twist" clamps, some nice ones available on eBay too.

Lee I've had a look on ebay but failed to see anything nice, what phrase did you use for your search?

Cheers,

The postage is twice the price of the clamp, looks like msc is the only one that comes up for the UK but i could have swore i have seen before from the usual tool suppliers.

I've seen it on a few US machining videos but it doesn't look like it's too popular outside of US. I'll keep checking ebay, something might show up at some point.
