Simply genius. Actually I thought about doing this to my orange Jorgensen clamp, but the problem arises if you need the other chain anchor, which reduces the clamp range.

What's missing is the short length of chain that's fixed at both ends to the handle. Real chainwhips have 5 half-links at one end that anchor one side of the cog while the long flexible end wraps around the rest of the cog.
