While tidying some junk boxes I came across a stash of perforated brass disks used to label keys. Unless I intend to open a prison (hmm, the grandkids *do* need a place to play), the supply was far more than I'll ever use. So, I decided to make an adjustable clamp spacer per the design one sees occasionally in "Model Engineer".
The disks are stacked on a threaded rod which is countersunk and soldered into the bottomost disk. A knurled thumbscrew on the top allows tensioning the stack. In use, one merely swings aside the unneeded disks such that the remaining 'stack' is the proper height for the clamp.
