I have an old Blackburn bench top clamp that I've had it since the 1980's. For light stuff, I wrap a cut to size cloth around the top tube. When I'm working on bare frames, sometimes I'll put in a proper sized old steel seatpost and grip it in the Blackburn. For heavy work like removing or installing a BB I'll sometimes grip the frame near the bottom of the down tube. I put the bike on the ground to remove stuck pedals.
