WHY WON'T THEY STAY?!
This is the third time I've crawled back under my car to loosen the exhaust clamps, shove everything back together, then tighten them back down with the force of The Hulk this time adding some wire to the mix to keep things from working apart again.
And yes, that's aluminium tape covering up welding burn-throughs.

I keep looking, but I'm having a total failure of imagination. That's a lot of thin gauge wood product. Elegant shelving/organizational system? Model railroad layout? Dollhouse for a kid? Science Fair display? Parts depot? Killer mini golf set up? Lawn mower observed trials course? (kidding, kinda...)

Cherry bombs are made with very thick tubing. You'll want to use more Hulk strength. Tighten the clamps til the tube deforms and they'll stay put.

First time I did this I used a rattlegun which I no longer have access to, so I used a regular ratchet and cheater bar to get it as tight as I possibly could. Not sure how tight that ended up being, t hough.

I honestly have no idea. Some of it is siding from back when we had wooden siding on the house, the rest is just scrap pieces that we keep around 'JUST IN CASE WE NEED IT' which will likely be never.

Oh, hey, I have that project, too! :) Hmmm. Siding sometimes makes good surfaces for skateboard structures, if it can be turned smooth-side-up. Maybe some neighborhood shredder grommets could build a ramp. Good luck with the exhaust!

If the pipe isn't dented, it's not tight enough. Looks like you have a lot of thread left. Typical "tight enough" is when the nuts are halfway up the u-bolt.

The one towards the left was rattle-gunned down as far as it would go and hasn't budged since. The one on the right was also rattle-gunned down as far as I could get it to go, but it keeps slipping. JB Weld time?

What kind of rattle gun? An actual impact wrench gives a lot more torque than a drill-driver.
I wouldn't JB an exhaust, but maybe that's just me.

Pneumatic something-or-other. I know next to nothing about air-powered weapons tools.
