On the Long-EZ forum, someone posted about an Adel clamp tool using a hemostat. I was skeptical, but for only $12 on Amazon with delivery, I decided to give it a shot. Unfortunately, it didn’t work in its original condition. Even after heating it and driving an expansion pin through, it still didn’t work. However, after cutting away a quarter of it, it seems to work pretty well.
I doubt the heating and beating did it any favors, but at least cutting it made it functional.: I’ve only tested it in a free state so far.
