Ribs in... Here you can see the ribs clecoed in place. Clecos are the little cylindrical things you see scattered about the tender. The technical name for them is "spring clamps". Cleco is a brand name that seems to be the main slang term used when talking about them. If you are doing sheet metal and riveting, they are just about indispensable as they are used to temporarily hold pieces together until the rivets go in. {BACK} {HOME} {A&C SHOPS} {BERKSHIRE} {AMERICANS} {No. 9} {CARS} {JEWELRY} {CONTACT} copyright © 2004-2006, Jack Bodenmann, all rights reserved.
