May your clamp exceed your grasp

My hand strength is not what it used to be, making it hard to tighten clamps. So I applied the force of my mind to the problem. I simply drilled ¹⁄₄ holes in the handles of my clamps and glued in short dowels. Now I've got leverage and all the clamping pressure I need.
