Just knocked this out in Sketchup, it's a basic plywood rolling clamp cart.
Sketchup File Link.
Materials:
1 sheet 3/4" plywood. Grade not really important. It's a clamp cart after all.
4 3" locking swivel casters.
16 "Broom Clips" to hold pipe clamps.
3 2x2x8 construction grade pine, or 2 cheap 2x4x8 ripped to 2x2x8 (cheaper).
1.25" coated deck screws.
There is absolutely NO fancy joinery here. This is all utility screw and glue stuff. The cross bar heights can be adjusted to work with your specific clamps. This is sized to fit 144 Harbor Freight F type bar clamps or similar, plus 8 3/4" pipe clamps (using 6' pipes).
The advantage to this design is there is a LOT of clamp storage in a very small space. The disadvantage is that with a footprint of 12x36", and an overall height nearly 6' 5" it could prove to be somewhat top heavy.
I claim no responsibility for any accidents if anyone builds one, loads it up, and it topples on them, others, or property and causes damage. I merely offer this as an idea... Use it at your own peril...
I did consider going lower and wider, but the point of the narrowness was to be able to slide this thing into a small floor footprint space for stowage.
