Rockwell JawStand – a Second Set of Hands

Rockwell JawStand Work Clamp Support

Rockwell just announced their new JawStand, a handy clamp that serves as a second set of hands. The compact and easy to use JawStand has a capacity of 220 lbs, can clamp workpieces up to 1-3/4″ thick, and has an adjustable height of 25 to 41 inches. Its heavy-duty tripod support can pivot 0 to 90° and swivel 360°.

As with Rockwell’s highly successful Jawhorse, the JawStand comes fully assembled and sets up quickly with no tools. At 13.2 lbs, the JawStand is fairly lightweight, and folds into a rather portable package.

Additional features include a hardened steel tripod base with non-marring and non-slip rubber feed, height measurement scale, built-in bubble level, and low-friction upper clamp surfaces.

The JawStand looks like it would make a decent extension table or workpiece support for table and miter saws. It can also hold doors during installation, raise cabinets for mounting, and clamp workpieces for sanding, painting, scraping, and similar support projects.

MSRP for the Rockwell JawStand (RK9033) is $70, and it should soon be available via local retailers and hardware stores. It looks like Rockwell took the well-regarded Triton Pivoting Multi-Stand and kicked things up a notch or two.

    Wow how long has this idea been around? Never seen it before.

    I’m checking out the Triton reviews.
    I have a $15 amazon card that I might use.

    The Triton version is nothing new, but the Rockwell version appears to be a pretty significant upgrade. For the same money, I’d go with the Rockwell. I’m not sure when it’ll hit stores, but it should be very soon (this month?).

    Just curious what upgrades you are referring to. The specs look pretty close…

    I’m basically looking at the size of the jaws. The JawStand looks to be a bit taller, and the tripod looks like it folds down into a smaller profile, making the unit more portable.
