Default Chassis tube clamps

Folks, a heads up for those who like me are just starting their chassis build. Lidl have magnetic clamps for sale at £3.99. It's one of their specials so won't be around for long. I can't vouch for their quality as yet as haven't tried them but I thought that at that price they were worth a punt.

i used some in my build they are ok, my advice would be get a couple of quality ones and several cheap ones, thats what i did, allowed me to mock up big sections of the chassis with magnets to check fit before welding.
think i used eight 90/45 degree magnets plus a couple of adjustable ones
