just buy a clamp from the store.
For your information, Buff clamps have lips at one side so it doesn't go further when the bottom edge of the steertube touches the edge of the clamp.
 
i know it has the edge obviously i was just wonderin because ive seen plenty of pics of buffs with doubles. i was just wondering how they got em on there cuz i already tried stretchin it

get a crowbar or a flathead screwdriver, remove the bolts off of the clamp, insert the crowbar or screwdriver into the slot of the clamp and try to bend it open. do that until it fits

File sand or dremel it out until it fits.

do like the penny trick. take out ur bolts, put a penny over the hole with no threads, and thread the bolts back in backwards until the buffs fit in then take out the bolts and put them back in like normal
