Copy MX seatclamp advice needed

[g_lamb]

Have bought a couple of the hinged version MX copy seat clamps but they won't tighten enought to stop the seat post twisting

Any ideas? (BTW - I drive a desk for a living so needs to be a "simple" fix  )

Many thanks for any help you can give

what was the solution?

[g_lamb]

cut up a plastic milk container nice a neet  then place a nice neet strip between frame and clamp , this should make the clamp work better  add move strips as neccessary  Or shim the seatpost in the frame using cut up beer can  But b careful not 2 slice your fingers on the can as it can b very sharp  Just use a good pair of sissors 2 do these jobs  simples
