Pros & Cons
Pros
The precision machining and squareness are what make this possible. The machined sides make this an excellent choice for a multi-purpose drill press vise. Well and machined surfaces are precise.
When the vice is fastened down to the table, you need to slide the handle back and forth as it’s turned to keep it from hitting. It allows me to clamp my work at odd angles. There is a little slop in the screw but it is a good vise.
Cons
It’s all there, but it is very poorly machined.

Price
Recommend highly for anyone who wants a good solid vise for a good price!
This vise represents a great value at a very reasonable middle price point.
You can get a vise for half of the cost of this one, and it will be a total piece of junk.
But for the price, it is an acceptable and accurate light-weight vise.

Competitiveness
This vise was a "step up" from the low end vise that came with my drill press so i don't have a background with commercial mach... Read More
However to get something significantly better than this vise (in the same size category) will cost at least three times the cos... Read More
You can buy one cheaper but i believe wilton has a better product.
