Review on TRISENSE Magnetic Multipurpose Protector: Ultimate Industrial Power & Hand Tool Companion by Tony York

My vise is 5 inches so I cut it off. I liked that the rubber inserts slide out, making it easy to cut the rubber about an inch further than the metal to leave some excess. The rubber is snug enough against the aluminum that I don't have to worry about it slipping off when moving or shifting, and it's almost solid. just enough to keep anything cylindrical out of contact with the aluminum to cause scratches. Gum has a slight stickiness. The two plates will stick to each other when pressed when there is nothing between them, and they will stick to the clamped object even after releasing. So I dry them with Teflon in addition to the new magnets. My only issue in general is the strength of the original magnets. I am not sure what they are made of. They splinter, spark, they're not as black as most chip magnets are. . I've tried them on my 30 year old 360 x 360 Heavy Duty Desktop Vise and my new 360 x 360 Heavy Duty Desktop Vise and they stay strong against simple gravity but knock off easily when the vise hits or they hit themselves or you didn't hold rubber or oiled or dusted depending on whether you're working with metals, wood or plastic. But as a maker, I buy rough ideas and then model them. Since I don't have an aluminum roller, rubber roller, or electromagnetizer, but have access to a hacksaw, drill, and other magnets, that's great. Cut them to length, pull out the old magnets, adjust the holes and stick on new magnets and rods that will work for you for a lifetime.
