    Hi all, I have burned lots of fingers while holding pieces of silver
    while polishing them. Ring clamps never worked well for me. I found
    I can cement hard rubber pads with contact cement to jaws of vice
    grips. The opening of vice grips can be adjusted to clamp on what
    ever thickness the project is. The adjustment is fine enough to
    prevent crushing the piece to be polished.  They have an easy
    release trigger that unclamps the piece. Sure does save my fingers.
