They are useful and do work,and great for where you don't want to use pins, though some builders prefer not to use them as they screw into the framework.

Karl1113 has used a similar type..

Model Shipways have a similar item which clamps to the frame rather than screws into it..

Can be found on eBay and some model ship outlets..
