Re: broken clamps on DBB/what will work?

[Guest guest]

People have discussed this before and they said they used some type

of auto clamps or something temporarily. Something that you use to

clamp together hoses or something. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more

help. I just don't seem to remember like I used to!!

, you must have the red adjustable bar also! You've probably

solved your problem by now, but just in case, you can use pipe clamps

in a pince. Just take the FAB to your local hardware store and get

someone to help you find a clamp that will fit. I'm not sure if you

can order the replacement clamps online or not. I've been ordering 4

at a time each time we go for new shoes - and using them all between

visits!

it's very permanent, wonderful junk but not if you need to take apart

what you glued together.

Someone else mentioned it...it's hose clamps (not pipe clamps) that

will work.

We wrapped the bar in duct tape until we could get replacements;

then we got extra clamps for the next time! This worked just fine

for the few nights we needed it.
