Craig got it right in Hand Tools

I ordered 2 of these vises instead of a Moxon vise or a regular vise because they would all interfere with my torsion box build table and I put it on I didn't want to face it. They have a low profile, excellent clamping pressure and are very easy to install.

Pros
  • Attaches to worktops 1" to 2" thick
Cons
  • So far so good

is solid 5 stars. This is a great addition to my woodworking vises - I use these vises way more often than I intended.

Pros
  • Includes a 3" (76mm) table clamp, an anodized aluminum clamp plate, two mounting latches, two clamp blocks, hardware
Cons

Pros
  • Versatile vise system that is easy to install and use
Cons
  • Boring package
