5.0 out of 5 stars A LOT BETTER THAN I EXPECTED, July 19, 2007

After deciding to finally start getting the materials to build a wood working bench I came across this vise at one of the auction sites. Black powder coated heavy cast iron and chrome plated slides and screw shaft. Slide up dog, predrilled recessed screw holes for mounting your favorite hard wood pads. Best of all, it is very smooth in or out. There are no markings on the cast iron that I can find. If you get it under 25.00 you got a very good deal because it is as good as some of the big name brands.

5.0 out of 5 stars Woodworking bench vise, February 24, 2009

The bench vise arrived by ground shipment in a normal delivery time period. The vise is a heavy cast iron product and is well constructed, maunfactured and finished. It works smoothly and well. It is exactly as described in the manufacturer's sales literature. It's a good and functional vise - exactly what I wanted. It's a great bargain at the price and is comparable in function and quality to vises priced at much higher cost.

This review is from: Michigan Industrial Tools MIT Tool 6-1/2" Wood Working Vise (Misc.)

I'm new on woodworking, this is my first vise, I can say that works great, holds the pieces very tight, I even don't need any protection on my workpieces the vise is very flat and leaves no marks in the wood.

I give 4 stars because the mecanism to open and close the vise is not as smooth as I was hoping.
