Am I the only one who didn't realise there was an allen hole on the tightening wheel for when you want to really clamp down on something?

Err, no. 

[Fiddlesticks]

Neat!

I thought that was for getting them off after you've really gone mad gripping something.

 Dont you screw them in then clamp them down with your hands? there should be no tension on the screw until you clamp them 

 

Then you use the release lever to release them causing the screw to be free to move again

I will add it's fecking chucking it down.. 

 

It's great for limited space when you can't really get in to clamp things with the Jaws open.
