Panel Grips

My take on the Gripper (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2247663)

Intended to be printed... any strong plastic should do, infill to your own liking. Includes handles and a shim plate (shim plate has a hook inside to keep it in place, this allows the grip to be used on thinner material)

This design uses standard M6x20mm stainless socket head bolts and it's meant to be TIGHT against it (will also need to be thread-tapped as the inner holes are 5.5mm on purpose). Suggest using washers between handle and grips - I didnt print it in because then the part will no longer sit flat against the bed. The M6 bolts may not hold for heavier panels to be lifted, feel free to modify the part for M10 or even thread a rod straight through.

for post processing you'll also need a self-adhesive rubber sheet or similar to provide friction grip...

Specs: Width: 140mm including handles (10mm thick each, grip itself is 120mm wide, inner surface 120mm tall), Max grip thickness: 50mm. Minimum grip thickness: 0mm with shim.. Max weight: unknown (subject to your own material and printer).
