re: High Vise

That is a good idea Autophobid. It looks like you can clamp it to the bench from the face to keep the screws handles out of your way, and add another clamp for more stability. 

Looks like high vices are all the rage.  Something doesn’t sound right about having high vices. 

I think I’ll go to Harbor Freight and buy a few hand screw clamps and make myself a high vice.
