The clamp does the job as intended. however the vacuum pump never turns off. So there is a slight vacuum leek in the clamp. Is there a way to find the leak?
Clamp works very well. Only small thing is you need to remove the clamp after about 10 minutes to clean up any glue squeeze out, which is just the way it goes with any vacuum clamp.
love it. Simple, straightforward, easy to use, and best of all, the membrane oi clear so you can see what you're doing and watch for squeeze out.
It doesn’t work because the seal is not engineered for a top with a radius. Highly disappointed and hopefully this can be made right. Thanks
Jon, thank you for the feedback, and I’m sorry the clamp isn’t sealing for you. The seal is designed to conform to a radiused top, so something specific is going on here, and occasionally a clamp goes out with a bad seal. I’ve emailed you directly to work through it. One way or another, I’ll make it right. — Dan
This vac press worked perfect the first time. Have used it on a few projects
From Martin D and N size guitars I make and on a Martin size ukulele I make. Much better than the old clamp way of doing things. I would say the only advantage of the clamp method is that the glue squeeze out is much easier to clean up than the vac press. But the advantage of the vac press out weighs this. I bought my press through o briens and the process could not have been simpler

I used the bridge vacuum clamp for the first time on my latest guitar and it worked great! The quality of the tool is outstanding.
Very straightforward and easy to use. Takes away a lot of the clunkiness (eg manoeuvring clamps) when gluing a bridge. I’ve found it particularly useful when using hot hide glue where the job needs to be done quickly and where there’s no room for hold-ups.
todo excelnte.. es una gran herramienta
