clothes pin clamps

[mklotz]

This is an old one but some of you may be unaware of it.

If you use clothes pins to clamp things, the blunt points may prove to be a bit clumsy in some applications.

Disassemble the pin and reassemble the parts upside down and, voila, you have a clamp with nicely tapered points...

The best tricks are sometimes the simplest. I wouldn't have thought of that, but great take on an old idea.
