Review: Great small vise - What a great little vise! I was looking for a small sized vise to clamp to my workbench and found this gem. It is compact but does the job perfectly. It is solid, made well, and finished well too. Most vises this size are fully painted, including the inside of the jaws used for clamping. This one has been finished, and as can be seen from the photos, is made well enough that there is perfect alignment between the jaws and no mis-alignment. I am looking forward to many years of use from this. Great find at a fair price.
Review: Love this little cutie! - This vice just arrived, but I have already used it 3 times, once to repair an armature in a fan motor, 2nd to cut a bass guitar brass nut to size, and also to make a truss rod cover for that same bass guitar. I mount it to a little folding table I have in my bedroom, and it works out great. Makes those small projects a pleasure to do. It holds objects very snug. I also got this at a reduced cost because it was a return, with some sort of damage, but I found no damage and I saved a few bucks over retail cost because of that. Great bargain, great performing tool. Get one! Thanks. Kem. May 31, 2024.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it fit an AR-15 upper receiver vise block?**
A: Yes, but, as others state, it's tight, depending upon the block that you have?  I simplified it by purchasing a upper receiver "jig/block" which mounts great on the vise thus eliminating fitting/marring issues.  The one I purchased is from AR Stoner, very similar to the "no-mar" which Amazon offers, which I purchased as well (for a "back-up device").

**Q: Is this vise made in the U.S.?**
A: Manufacturer website says Made in China.

**Q: Sanding - I need a vise that I can hold boards roughly 12" tall by 18" wide in order to sand the edges. I wonder if this would work, or maybe two?**
A: Look for a woodworking vise such as the Yost-M7WW-Rapid-Acting-Working. Years ago I bought a Columbian (Made in USA) woodworking vise - maybe 10-inch - through Sears. I mounted it under the workbench which was made of 2X6 boards, but I added maple faces (maybe 8" x 12") to each side so it would not damage my red oak I was using to build my bed. On the other end of the workbench, I had an older Sears vise to support the long boards. You won't need 2 vises with a board that is 18" wide. 
Good grief! A 3-year-old question.

**Q: The jaws on mine aren't perfectly aligned.  About 2-3 degrees of rotation between the sides.  Is this normal?**
A: Not normal, return it for one that is parallel.
