The author proposes to put the Chinese knife "at a loss", and make it a simple universal clamp, which can be useful both in the home workshop and in the country. The homemade product itself is very simple - it will not be difficult to make it.
In addition to a cheap Chinese knife, you will need a small loop, as well as bolts with nuts (for convenience, it is better to take the “lamb”).
First of all, you need to drill holes on both leaves of the door hinge with a larger diameter drill. Only the extreme holes need to be drilled. Those in the middle do not need to be touched.
The main stages of work
Next, the author cuts the tip of the knife and cuts out part of the blade with the blade. This will require an angle grinder. After that, the knife must be processed on a grinding machine so that no burrs remain.
At the next stage of work, it is necessary to weld the knife to the door hinge. To do this, the loop itself must be clamped in the right position in a bench vise, and set the knife evenly on top, and then carefully weld.
Then it remains only to beat off the slag and strip the weld. The master inserts two bolts into the holes in the door hinge and tightens the wing nuts.
A home-made clip can be used as a mini-clip for fixing small parts, as well as as a holder for blades from a stationery knife or hacksaw blades.
Details on how to make a simple universal clip from a cheap Chinese knife can be found in the video on the website.
