In accordance with the present invention, an improved clamping apparatus is employed. The clamping apparatus includes a clamp body having a first and a second end, an attachment member having a first and second end, the first end of the attachment member connected to the first end of the clamp body, a clamping member having a first end and a second end, the clamping member slidably connected to the second end of the clamp body, a locking mechanism for locking the clamping member, and a spring biasing the locking mechanism towards a locking position. Preferably, the clamping member includes a pad disposed at the second end of the clamping member. Further, the clamping member may include a knob disposed at the first end of the clamping member. The clamping member may be a threaded rod. In addition, the locking mechanism may include a locking button that engages the threaded rod. This locking button has an upper surface. This upper surface may abut the clamp body upon rotation of the threaded rod.
