This is the best design of all I have seen on youtube. Simple and effective.

No expensive wire clamp tool needed. Brilliant idea. Saves time, money and nerves. Thanks for sharing!

This is the best 'how to' version of this method I've found, for the smallest amount of effort to make 👍

Все гениальное - просто, и портить инструмент нет необходимости. 👍👍👍

👍👍👍this is the most simple way to make a wire clamp.

Good Lord! that’s clever. I wish I had the kind of brain that thinks these things up.

I can't speak for anyone else but I love my ADHD because without it the stuff would not interest me

Hello from Arizona, US! I'm Navajo/Zuni and I solder silver jewelry all the time. I took have made the other clamptite diy tool with a turnbuckle and wingnut. Initially using the clamptite tool surprised me how much wire was used because it doubled. I usually have wire long enough to use your tool with! I have to soften the wire with heat first if using scrap. I didn't think to soften the hex key. The ratchet side wrench is a plastic and metal battery terminal 10mm tool. I use x-acto knives that are round. The first thing I used your tool on was decorating my handles so they don't roll around so easily. I don't see your tool anywhere else and I am looking forward to using it with joining two poles together. The clamptite diy tools don't seem to like complex contours especially if the wires or some are pressing underneath obstacles. I'm simply attaching a hitch to my bicycle and I look forward to your simpler wire clamp design using your tool.

That is so elegant!

And I thought the wheel was already invented.... A lot less wire is right!! A couple things I like about this wire clamp tool, less wire, simple, not tools destroyed. Some of these wire clamp tools I been watching use 2ft of wire for the same size hose, and I'm sure it's still stronger than a worm-gear hose clamp and with nothing sticking up, thanks for posting.........

I enjoyed your video for its simplicity and elegance. When I went to my shop to duplicate the tools, I found I only had case hardened wrenches and Allen Wrenches. Before I could try out your idea, my challenge was actually to drill a hole through that hardened steel. You made it look very easy! I still have not conquered that hardened steel with cobalt bits or sharpened masonry bits. I cannot justify the cost of a pure carbide drill bit. Can you or anyone offer a solution to this?

It is good to drill hardened steel with an ordinary drill if it is heated and then slowly cooled, and then it can be made solid again if it is heated and cooled quickly, for example, in oil. But it is hardly worth doing this, it is easier to find an ordinary key made of fairly hard, but elastic steel.

If you really think that you need this tool(s) . You could go to a yard sale and get some cheap wrenches. I have seen this type of clamp on things in my 63 years. You may want to make this tool if you are restoring something and want original looking clamps. I think I would take the time to file the ends of the wire / and form them so it would not rip you open , like cutting them with dykes will do . All in all it is outstanding thinking 🤔.

это лучшее , что видел !

Excellent design and use tools. But not in every place would have enough space to twist the tools. Cheers from 🇧🇷

The 'knot' stands too proud, will snag skin, grass, well anything. But for quick fixes it's up there.

Awesome info man, appreciate it!

nice idea. ends of wire need to be tidied better, that's just asking to tear up some skin in a pretty nasty way.

Easy peasy - very handy if u don’t have any clips !

Nice... But these step is so much complicated just for tightenening a hise

Inspiring!!!

I still think the other example of hose wire clamping looks more professional, also visually cleaner and evenly finished if you care more about workmanship appearance. However, both examples are equally strong.

Your final result looks like it's blood thirsty

The double wire creates a better seal. If the seal is not critical then this should be ok.

I built a test piece with a rest of 30bar rubber hose and cast brass hardware, bearing 16 such double wire clamps. Then tested it with a manually operated Rothenberger Test Pump. It held 60 bar (the pump's max. pressure) for several minutes, then the one screw fitting for attaching the pump failed, because one part was only from a rolled brass pipe and obviously too cheap. From a similar piece with single wire clamps (created with a modified pair of pliers) one such clamp failed at around 48bar pressure. It is important to use annealed wire (wire which has neven been tensioned before).

Awesome idea dude thank you 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Thank you person.

What type of wire are you using? I saw 2mm but it there a particular type? Stainless?

Soft knitting wire. Annealed wire is possible.

Needs more than 1 plane of clearance to build compared to the other video i just watched. With similar tools modified to make wire hose clamps

Wow ! Bravo

Elegant variation of this theme. But I think you would do just as well without the ratchet mechanism.

Where to buy the 2mm wire? Steel or aluminum?

@prismechanic

Steel

@seanseoltoir

Aluminum tends to stretch over time, so it should be avoided... I've used 17 gauge aluminum wire for a temporary repair because that was all I had on hand, but I replaced it with steel as soon as I got some steel wire... I typically use 18 gauge galvanized steel electric fencing wire bought in 1/4 or 1/2 mile rolls...

I like it a lot better than the screw type clamps even though it tends to take more time for *me* to install it... I would be interesting to see how much pressure it really could support... Maybe someone should suggest it to the ProjectFarm channel?

Well it works, but an over abundance of steps necessary to secure the hose.

All great ideas. Both methods. But I have never run into a situation where I needed this tool. I always have or carry hose clamps. Course at my house but also in my vehicles emergency kits. I also carry hose adapter kits in case a hose is split severally. Then I can cut the hose and insert the adapter and use the clamps to fix the issue. When I travel I carry two 5 qt bottles of water. So again, not sure the real need of these unless you are just not a bit organized. So if you have this you should be able to have an assortment of hose clamps.

I always just grip the two wire ends with a pair of needle nose pliers and twist until tight. No need to drill holes in your tools.

Yeah that doesn't actually make it tight enough for any notable clamping force. You need something that can apply a stretching motion and then twist, which is what wire clamping tools do.

😂😂😂 It really amuses me to think of you writing this without taking two seconds to realize that anyone who would do this has already done that. Like part of this process is twisting the wires so they don't come undone, and you assume it didn't occur to them to just twist? The leverage here provides an order of magnitude more clamping force than your method. That's the entire point.
