Review on 🧲 Shop Fox D3229 Magnetic 2 Inch: Effortless Precision and Maximum Versatility by Daniel Evans

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fits perfectly with Rigid F-50

No complaints so far. Time will tell how well the hard rubber/plastic liners adhere properly to the aluminum frame. They fitted my new F-50 rigid vise perfectly and are a suitable accessory as the vise has some imperfections. the most aggressive jaw textures I've ever seen. I would rate the magnets as adequate for the task, although not overly strong. Edited March 4, 2014: Rubber inserts come off fairly quickly. I think it was actually inevitable. They're not completely detached, but I'll probably rip them out and replace them with something harder, or just use the aluminum surfaces directly on the workpiece. I would like to know where to get the fiber material that we used as apprentices in the early 80's - this material has performed well when riveted onto blank holders.
