I cannot use the “office type” black clips that have been shown here. I have carpal tunnel and cannot open them to go over the edge of the table. These are the clamps I used before I got my longarm. They are so nice, no squeezing. However, you must have the right thickness on the table you use. (The clamps are about 3/4”). My table is the brown one you can get from Office Depot. If you get the thick white table top the clamps will not work. I bought the clamps from a quilt store.
