Abstract: A new clamping device for holding items. The inventive device includes an elongate threaded rod and a plurality of clamp members. Each of the clamp members generally comprises a pair of arms each having a jaw portion, a middle portion, and a handle portion. The pair of arms of the clamp member are pivotally coupled together at the middle portions of the pair of arms with the jaw portions opposing one another. The clamp member has a bore extending between the first and second sides of the clamp member. The first and second sides of the clamp member each also have a cog outwardly extending therefrom around the bore of the clamp member. Each of the cogs of the clamp member has a plurality of teeth. The threaded rod is extended through the bores of the plurality of clamp members such that the clamp members are rotatable about the longitudinal axis of the threaded rod. An end cap is coupled against rotation to one of the ends of the threaded rod.
