| | Trying to find: clamp-on, swivel head carving vise I have been trying to find a good vise for a while. I'm in a small town (bigger town is 75 miles away) so internet is necessary. This carver on youtube.com has the vise I'm looking for. Unfortunately, all I can find on the internet is a vacuum base and that won't stick to a work bench. YouTube - Wood Carving wood spirit lesson #1 Could someone put up a link that will take me to the vise? Thanks for the help. Norm Carlsbad, NM PS: I just checked related topics and unfortunately, the links to previous vises are no longer working. Darn it.

I Just purchased a clamp on Jerry Rig vise from " Chipping Away ". They are located in Canada. They had a 25 % off sale, maybe it's still going on. I recieved it in about 7 days. It's great. Sorry, I don't have the e-mail address available for you. Good Hunting.
