Motor oil videos on this channel bring out the funniest jokes about “Project Farm’s coffee”. So, I decided to surprise everyone by creating a new coffee brand, Ozzie’s Coffee. As you can probably tell by how fast I talk, I like coffee. Thanks again for supporting the channel.

Seeing the test with the torque wrench surely the length of the arm comes into that allowing more torque as you get more leverage? Was that what was trying to be achieved I'm not sure
FFS, mate.
I don't even care about C clamps.
And this is me watching it for the 2nd time with interest … HOW?
That heavy-duty wilton is no joke lol, holy crap those pressure numbers!
There is a lot of force going on in this excellent video……Thanks Awesome Farm Guy you are the best ????
Shoe????????
I'll bet you're happy that $250 Wilton survived. It will likely come in handy for future testing.
Would you test the effectiveness of Stabil?
Another handy video thank you for. your hard work. What about testing trigger/ratcheting clamps.
I'm fairly confident that the Groz clamp would be made in the Czech Republic. I have a few of their tools and that's where they all come from.
I'm continually impressed at how creative and thorough your tests are. Any time I'm looking to buy a new piece of equipment – your channel is one of the first places I look to make sure I get what I need.
For anyone wandering, the Groz c-clamp is made in India. I have no idea why they did not put that on the packaging.
Man that Wilton is serious
Great review. Excellent idea to test relative clamping force for a given torque. If you do another one of these, another idea for a torque tool would be to cut a slot across the diameter of a socket to lock into the tightening bar. This removes the length factor, but your extension test handles that.
Flat Bars would be interesting to see ????????
Big lot of J clamps for sale, cheap…
