Multipurpose Auxiliary Vise

Raise your work to a new level. Made with traditional details and materials, this handy vise is a rugged companion to your workbench.

A heavy-duty workbench sits at the center of most workshops, and part of what makes it so capable is that it serves as a platform for accessories such as this auxiliary vise. This isn’t your standard vise, however. First, the vise raises a workpiece to a more comfortable level, whether you’re sitting or standing. Second, the smaller jaws offer greater access to a workpiece and are less likely to interfere with a tool. In addition, you can easily adjust the position of the vise without needing to release the workpiece. The vise rotates as well as extends beyond the edge of the bench. It’s anchored by a mounting bolt that fits into a bench dog hole so you can approach a workpiece from any angle.
