Review on Yost Vises MP 345 Aluminum Prism by Dipp Samrock

Revainrating 2 out of 5

UPDATE: The two sides of the sponge set don't match

So I love this product but they keep sending me mismatched sets. This is attempt #2. Please see my photos for better understanding. Since the two sides of the jaws of these vices face each other, they cannot be identical. When they meet, all of their grooves must be aligned to hold objects of different sizes in place. You pack identical pairs of items. These vise jaws otherwise appear to be of good quality and fit snugly in a small but sturdy 4 inch vise. I would like to be sent an actual matching pair. I think this time I will contact the manufacturer directly. .UPDATE: I wanted to add a comment to this review and point out the excellent customer service I experienced when I contacted Yost Vises. From my report they learned that they had manufacturing issues and were shipping sets of vise jaws with two identical sides. Pine, not right and left. Production stopped immediately, of course, but it took them some time to fix the problem. In other words, they couldn't just send me a new pair and it would take some time before they could. Instead, they sent me two similar products to test, one of which was a pre-production demo, and they asked for my feedback on each. World class restoration services from Yost and I wanted to make sure the reader of this review knows that.
