Abstract
A post holder for holding a post in place. The post holder includes: a casing including a hollow cylinder and a clamping flag defined by a cutout formed in the hollow cylinder; first and second brackets detachably secured to the casing; a cylindrical rod disposed between the first and second brackets and secured to the first and second brackets; and a levered cam disposed between the first and second brackets and having a shape of a comma that includes a tail and a circular disk. The circular disk has a hole that the cylindrical rod passes through, where the hole is offset from a center of the circular disk so that a level of a clamping force that the circular disk applies to the clamping flag changes as the levered cam rotates relative to the casing.
