Quick release vice just too tedious? This is for you :)

A vice, that's all it is, yet someone will always try to re-invent a different, more expensive way to do the same job....

I guess he must be mates with the guy that runs Bridge City Tools.

What a contraption that is.

Kit like that at prices like that should attract the attention of the vice squad ! 8)

Good to see it has a granny gear for those really hard to clamp things.

I wouldn't mind a pneumatic wood vice that slammed shut when you hit the valve. FINGERS! :lol:

 

[That would work]

It's described as a "twin turbo". I wish these people would just go away!!!

Worked for a while with an engineering vice, that had an air cylinder, in place of the screw, developed for disabled use.
That thing gripped!!! Bang ON, crash OFF! No finesse, got thrown out as too dangerous in the end.

My desire to own one of these or any multitude of shiny workshop kit is inversely proportional my need for it, it does look good though you have to admit.

An improvement I dreamed about was a mini-chain morticer; about the size of the domino with interchangeable bits. Operating on the plunge like a domino. That's what I call overkill. :mrgreen:

If you think that's interesting/over the top, you should see his work bench!

I'm always looking for ways to save time in the workshop.

With this tool I can easily reduce my vice closure time from three quarters of a second to a quarter of a second. That's a half a second saving.

if I value my time at say £50 per hour, that's a saving of 0.03p (rounded up) per vice closure.

That means I would only have to open and close the vice 8795 times and it's paid for itself!

No brainer really.

You forget the cool cogs that you can see spinning behind the clear plastic

The clear plastic that will likely crack within a few years... :|
