I see some standard clecos, a couple of "F" style cleco clamps and a couple of butt joint clamps. If the standard ones are copper colored, they are for #30 holes. $10-15 for the lot maybe. New, about $.50 each for the standards, $7-9 for the pliers. The "F"s are about $2 each. The butt clamps run about $3-4 each.

Agreed on that, for both parts and price.

Good eye, Jim. Missed the point on that one, for sure...

Clecos in action ... holding stuff until it gets screwed or riveted.

Jim: Those are average used prices. New would 50% or more higher, depending on where one shops and the quantities purchased. At work, we've bought probably several million between the various sizes and styles since the place opened in 1942.
