Say you have 3" pipe cut into 2 inch sections with a slit to use as clamps. Opposite the slit you drill two holes about 1 1/2" apart and you can insert two pieces of rod stock to use as a handle to hold them open. Now that you can get them for $1. or less why bother. At one of those dollar junk stores I bought a bag of 7 various size plastic spring clams with heavy springs for $3.
