Sam's hobo nickel vise

[don hicks]

I don't know for sure if I'm allowed to say this ... but, you can buy a really nice nickle holder for $39.00 on the "other forum". They are readily available and the price isn't out of line.

I made a holder of this design. If ( should read when) I make my next one, I will put flats on the side with the slots as well.(ie make the bottom square). Without them the unit wants to spin in the vice jaws when you tighten the machine screw. Hope this explanation makes sense. Otherwise a great holder.
Cheers
Don

BPE Engraving is a supplier for GRS. Their carbon fiber nickel holder is quite nice and well worth the money.

Sam I picked up one of these and later met Jack at Scotts Engrave In. Great Fellow and this an excellent tool.
