Review on PANAVISE 304 Flat Head by Jonathan Germain

PanaVise 304 Low Profile Head PanaVise 304 Low Profile Head, Steel jaws, 7.75" OAL Great for close-up work. Works very well For a small vise, it holds items firmly and firmly in place and place without slipping. Also handy for drilling custom PCBs. "; Length: 7.75"; Weight: 1.4 lb. Along with the 304 you will need a base to hold it. I purchased a PanaVise 380 vacuum base (http://www.amazon.com/Panavise- 380-PanaVise - Vacuum-Base)./dp/B0002BC294/ref=pd_sbs_indust_28 ) This is a compact and portable tool stand designed for mounting on smooth, non-porous surfaces (this is my custom rolling table), bottom edge and a lever combination this creates a good vacuum that secures the unit to my desk surface Along with the PanaVise 306 and 380 I bought the 315 PCB holder http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000B5Y99C/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i03.Each Kind of PCB work.3 make a great combination of tools for the professional or electronics hobbyist. I recommend the base as a starting point, especially if you don't have the space to assemble a traditional screw-in vise base.
