Great review, got one a year and a half ago. Invaluable tool. I debated the cost with myself for a year before deciding to buy. I love mine. Doesn’t take up much room and very strong.
Thanks for sharing. I've looked at the vice several times online but never invested. My fear was how secure the ball was. I have the Tipton, which is fine for cleaning. But it falls short for gunsmithing. It looks like plastic, which also made me shy away. I'm in a tighter space, so the Inline system is a godsend. Great review, sir!
Thanks for the demonstration, One thing I gained from working with multi position vices is the .360 Deg rule, It is best that you have the vice mounted on a work surface that has no obstruction (Because of the length of the piece) like a wall behind it at the back edge of the bench. this gives you the freedom of positioning the piece right in front of you in any position that is needed without having to remount the piece to work on the other side or the back or front of the piece, the piece can be positioned to work around you, and not you working around the piece. If you have the room, it is best that you have a free standing bench to mount the vice on. anyway, that's my two cents to get the most that the vice will offer you. Peace - Dave
Thanks Dave. The ball joint on this vice mitigates the necessity of having room behind it. One simply moves the rig forward, rotate through the vertical dimension, then back. No need for free standing, which I have no room for. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
@@viejo2a Walter, that came from my experience as a apprentice in industrial fabrication. Sheet metal, welding, pipefitting, assembly and disassembly of components pumps, valves and such. I offered my Opinion based on working with such vices. I thought hat I made that clear.
@@thorsaxe5881 I got it Dave. I’m just saying that this vice is 360 in all dimensions, allowing me to rotate it to the best working position without it being hampered by obstructions getting in the way of rotating. If it would rotate just in the horizontal dimension, I would encounter the exact problem you describe, and the utility of the vice would be no better than any other 360 vice. 😀
Hi, AR. It’s proving to be a handy product for me. With your limited space, I’m sure it would be useful to you as well. You just have to find it at a good price. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
They are very proud of their product... I am not a fan of companies that have price controls(min price that can be advertised/listed) as I feel it is not how business should be run. Let the market decide what something is worth.
Hi, Papa. I don’t think these guys are doing that. I see decent prices all the time for this product outside the company website. Same kinda thing Lee does. We don’t buy gear direct from Lee unless absolutely necessary. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Hi, Mike. Yeah..it’s expensive for sure. Even here I would not have paid the MSRP on their website. Amazon sells it for around 20% less. I found a sale with free shipping. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸🇨🇦
Hobbies, as you said, Reality and budget. It would be nice to have a vice like that, however, realistically, how much would I use it? everyone has different needs and some would use it more than I would. also, as you know, fine handwork is done in the hands of a firearms craftsman for the detail honing and smoothing of parts and tuning mechanisms, you simply cant achieve that when working with the piece in a vice because you have to "Feel" what you are doing. It's a good well thought out vice, but I wouldn't use it much for the price tag needed to pay for it. - Dave
@@thorsaxe5881 This is a piece of equipment a person needs to get when they are young so they can enjoy the use of it over the course of their life. If I was 20 I could justify the purchase, if I could afford it.
Nifty piece of equipment, thanks Walter
Hi, Len. Thanks for checking in ! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸

Hi, Colt. So far, I’m really liking this one. I’m sure you’d find it useful. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Very nice 👍

Morning Walter very nice vise thanks for sharing

I didn't think much about that vice but watching your video I now want one. Help going down that rabbit hole!!!

Great review, I will have one on my bench now.
I’m sure you’ll find it useful, Andre. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Outstanding review and you definitely got me thinking about this one.
Hi Willie. It’s a little pricey, but seemed to be a good value to me. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
I've been waiting for this! Got my popcorn ready! Let's Go!
Haha! I hope the popcorn was good! 🍿🍿🤛🏻🇺🇸
It looks to be well worth the price of admission
It’s been worthwhile for me. Your mileage may vary as they say, but I like it! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Great video Walter nice looking vise
Thank you, my friend. See you soon! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
HOW DID I NOT SEE THIS???
Hiya, C-Dub. Because you were too busy making your videos! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸

It seems like a good addition to the bench to me. Thanks,Hillbilly. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Nicely done sir! Looks like a very nice tool. I could really use one of those.
Tjanks, TreeTop. I’m really liking this. 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Happy Fathers Day tomorrow Y'all
🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
that is awesome!
So far, it seems like a good piece of equipment. Thanks for stopping by, Kyle! 🤛🏻🔫🇺🇸
Good review, The vise looks great Viejo, but even on sale in Canada, it far exceeds my budget. Almost $350 at Cabela's Canada.
