I see there is a vise for sale in the classified and I didn't want to clutter up the ad.
I'm guessing this vise is used for drilling blanks. I thought most people have moved to drilling on their lathes (I wasn't one of that made that leap), so is there an additional use for this vise? I see the notch that could hold either a square or round blank vertical.
Can it be used for glue ups? What about cutting grooves on either a band saw or table saw? It seems the blank could be rotated to four positions for a square blank and almost infinite positions for a round blank and it could be held securely to cut the groove.
Maybe I'm missing something, more obvious than drilling blanks. My head is hanging in shame.:redface:
