Title: Bench Vise
Post by: Reel 224 on July 22, 2016, 03:57:44 PM
I decided to go out and purchase a new bench vise for my reel repair station and I bought this small versatile Pana Vise It Rotates360 Deg. Tilts 90 Deg. and turns 360 Deg.  It's made in the USA with a life time Warranty. The Model # 301 Price $59.13 at McMasters-Carr. Take a look and see how it fits on a small work top.

Hey Joe, good to see you around and hope all is well with you and Ruth.
These are great vises and can be quickly adjusted to many different angles. I think the one I have may be a different brand but looks pretty close. Its a great second pair of hands when you need them!
Best to you and Ruth and send her my regards.
..............Lou

Nice. That would fit the need perfectly--in between the fly tying vise and that big old hunk of iron in my garage...;)

I needed one just like that today on an older Avet reel. Just some to carefully hold it.

I guess it's my turn to order...

Thanks Joe

It's a nice one Keith, it only takes approximately 4 square inches of space.
I got mine from this seller:
http://www.ebay.com/usr/gpslot
I made him an offer of $44 and he went for it. Shipping was free and it came earlier than expected.
I'm not sure he has more, he mentioned they don't last long.
The first one I purchased from him wasn't in stock, so he sent me the money back.
If he doesn't have any, keep checking for his next shipment.
