Workshop Tip: A simple wingnut improves any toggle clamp
Replacing the top nut with a wingnut makes adjustments easyToggle clamps have two nuts for adjusting the height of their pressure tips, requiring two wrenches and some frustrating fiddling. If you replace the top nut with a wingnut or clamp knob, height adjustments become quick and easy, with no wrenches needed.
