    They still very much exist, but be rather selective from the type of
    brass coupling that holds the two halves together. Try not to get
    the style with a little piano hinge. I bought one of those and after
    a few tightening, it permanently separated. Bad construction and
    design. I can't tell over Orchid which company but all of them still
    supply these wooden clamps....
