I think the clamps Roland is describing are called "Binder Clamps". We have
a bunch of them lying around our shop too. Can be found at any office
supply place and even at Wal*Mart. Although maybe not as many sizes to
choose from.

Fast frame is nothing more than flat metal 'hoops', that hook onto a
holding base. There is only one metal piece for a hoop, you have to buy
the adhesive backing paper and stick it to the hoop, then put the
garment onto the adhesive and press down. The clamps we use are from
Staples-the 'paper clamp' that is a triangular piece of black metal with
2 'arms' to open it. Giant versions of the little clamps that come with
the hat attachment! But we bend the arms down so they don't hit the
needle bar. Melco doesn't supply them-got a 'bucket' of them at Staples
for a couple of bucks. Roalnd
