Just popped in my local Lidl for coffee and completely forgot about these so I only had a bit of cash on me. Appears woodworking isn't as popular here as there were a hell of a lot of cramps.
I just had enough for coffee, one of the larger cramps and a set of forstners (mainly out of curiosity). I'm not expecting fisch quality for 4 quid though.

Haven't used the cramp yet but comparing to a Bessey, it looks decent for £7. Iirc, the Bessey was about £16 and its a lot shorter. As we know all, its usually the bar wearing smooth over time so it'll be interesting to see how durable it will be. First impressions, good.
