"If im being honest, I did not stumble upon this product myself. It was suggested to me by my client. And I was skeptical at first. Not because it wasn't a wise concept...but because our application of these clamps was going to be used day in and day out on some colorguard backdrop frames.

The tube was 1/2" conduit of an already existing, welded frame. At 10 years old, most of the metal was sound...ish but the welds were not. My first instinct would be to just weld them all again. But when I got to thinking about it, not welding them gave us the option to use the material in a different capacity with minimal effort over the coming years. So, we threw in for 36 of the 1/2" clamps. When we got them, I was happy to see the black plastic compression inserts as a medium between the clamp and the conduit. To my surprise, these were incredibly strong, and I literally only needed a single Allen wrench to assemble once the metal was cut and cleaned. That value alone is tremendous!

The best value to me, however is that most people can easily understand and apply themselves to using this product. This means I can train my groups (most of them at the High School level) and they are soon self sufficient to maintain them props as necessary. So far, it has not been necessary :-). To be honest, I wish I had found Maker Pipe sooner." - Phillip
