    Default Question about Lee Valley Tail Vise

    Just wondering if anybody has any experience with this Lee Valley Tail Vise or any comments about it after looking at the site .
    I do not have one and figure that I could fit this one with a minimum of reworking my bench plus it is a bit cheaper than some.
    I've just become an optimist . Iv'e made a 25 year plan -oopps I've had a few birthdays - better make that a 20 year plan

    Peter, the web site you are directing us to is a promotional window not a product window.

If he gets it without working for it; he's a parasite; and if he accumulates it after a life time of hard work, people call him a fool who never got anything out of life."

    When I opened it, it was the promotion window. Just press the "continue" tab and it takes you to the tail vise.

    This time it took me straight to the product description. Go figure????. Well, after all this it is different to the vise I have so I can not provide any assistance.

    Thanks for that Scribbly. A search for "tail vise " on the Lee Valley website did not bring that one up.It required a search for "inset vise " I have ordered one of them as it came within Santas budget .

    Cheers
