Looking to buy a small quality vice. Would like to add soft jaws. What do you have ...please suggest. Thanks, Frank
With all due respect, there is a big difference between "vice" and "vise."
GWatson,not familiar with the brand you mention in the link.

At my age (70) any Vice would be welcome. I have to admit Happiness is walking around in a tool store.

Laugh and the world laughs with you. My wife asks if I want to see a ballet with her.... I reply do you want to walk around Home Depot with me for few hours.
I need vise or vice for holding billiard balls. I used one that I have... put some cardboard on the jaws and drilled. It worked very well but now I want to upgrade.

I know you are asking about a vise, but I've done some drilling in balls (cue balls, too) and found a concave jig on a drill press works best. Much more control.
Hard to beat the StewMac stuff (as a guitar player myself. but not a luthier). I bought one from Home Depot one (lifetime guarantee) and added the soft magnetic mounted silicone jaws.t[/url]
Depends on what kind of vice you are looking for.I suggest you look at all the vices at Lee Valley.
You might consider a Zyliss vise like this one on ebay. GENUINE SWISS MADE ZYLISS wood working VISE / clamp - IN GOOD CONDITION | eBay
I find them to be very well made, versatile, easily moved if necessary and they make an excellent pen press. You can either purchase soft jaw for it or easily make your own. Just a thought...
