Anyone use these Clamps? I'm going to start a laser cut structure next weekend and want to make sure it's square. I found these doing research and bought the O Scale set, they look like they will make building square walls easier.
The description says they'll hold material up to 1/4" thick so I'm hoping they'll hold the Ameritowne Walls.

They are a help (i.e. a third hand) but don't expect a tight clamping effect. Use them to help set up alignment but you will still need clamps to hold the walls while the glue dries.

Thanks Joe good to know. I have some bar and spring clamps as well. My main concern was getting the alignment like you said.
It looks like it might work well with hot glue. I like hot glue on the insides of corners, since it glues and stiffens at the same time, and doesn't require pressure during drying. Just as long as there are no visible gaps at the join.
