You can never have enough clamps

Old woodworking cliche.  I've been building up my stock of clamps from yard sales, flea markets and the occasional special sale on the Internet.
I must be doing something right.  I'm making a wood case.  It's a two part case.  It took two pipe clamps, four C clamps and two F-style clamps (8 clamps total) to clamp the first part after I glued it.  Surprise.  I had enough clamps left  over to glue up and clamp the second part.  That's 16 clamps in all. 
I didn't own nearly that many clamps when I retired up here.
