What is a "band clamp"?

A band clamp is a type of adjustable clamp designed to secure irregularly shaped objects, such as frames or corners. It consists of a flexible band, often made of nylon or steel, that wraps around the object being clamped. The band can be tightened using a mechanism that pulls the band tight to hold the object in place. Band clamps are especially useful for projects where traditional clamps cannot reach or apply even pressure, making them ideal for holding furniture parts, picture frames, or circular items during assembly or repair.

Examples
The woodworker used a band clamp to hold the corners of the frame while the glue dried.
