ClampTite tool

I've seen several home made versions of these handy wire clamping tools, so I figured I'd have a go at making one myself. Turned this out yesterday in a couple hours from plain steel. I wanted it mostly to carry on my motorcycle for emergency repairs, but now I'm thinking I'll do a second one of corrosion resistant materials for that and just keep this one in the shop.

Never heard of them, I just looked them up. Very cool tool and yours looks great! What material are you planning on?
 
Very good BMW Rider,
I had never heard of one either (sheltered life I guess)....
looked it up on you tube "ClampTite Wire Clamp Tool | SEMA Show Preview".
Very cool, and yours looks like it will so do the trick.
Extremely handy tool for the car, trailer, motorcycle or anywhere in the shop..uses are endless..!!
 
Well that's a neat and simple tool I've never seen before! I too had to Google it to see how it was used. I would like to make one....anyone have a set of plans ?

Nicely done BMW Rider! I like the use of the spring (roll) pins in your first version. Simple, effective, and strong.

Now i just have to go out and make one myself. I have two spools of SS Safety Wire in my toolbox already.
