About product

A third hand on the workbench

Drilling into a small casting is one of those activities during which people most often hurt themselves or break the part. Fingers holding a component are always in the drill's way, and the pressure you have to put on it rises at exactly the moment when there is least room for correction. A vise removes that problem by holding the part for you, leaving both hands free for the tool.

This piece measures 120 mm in height and 60 mm in width, and its jaws open to 40 mm. That is a size into which the fuselage of a fighter in a smaller scale, a tank turret, a block of resin casting or a longer metal barrel fits comfortably.

Where it is most useful

  • Drilling holes for tube barrels, antennas and wiring.
  • Sanding and filing mating surfaces where you need a constant angle.
  • Gluing two parts that have to be held for several minutes.
  • Working with super glue, when you do not want your fingers anywhere near.

Put a soft pad in the jaws, a strip of rubber or heavy paper for instance, so that the serrations do not print into the plastic. On thin-walled castings, tighten sensitively, because the force a vise exerts without effort is far too great for a model.

When choosing between a larger and a smaller version, do not decide by the biggest part that comes to mind but by what you will be clamping most often. Most modeling work happens on parts smaller than two centimeters, and there wider jaws bring nothing extra. A forty millimeter opening does pay off, however, the moment you take on a whole fuselage or a ship hull, because a smaller one will no longer reach.

FAQ

The jaws open to 40 mm, which covers the fuselage of a smaller fighter, a tank turret and a block of resin.

They can, so put a strip of rubber or paper between them. On thin-walled castings, tighten only lightly as well.

Yes, the same manufacturer offers a smaller and a considerably larger version. They differ in the width and in the jaw opening.

The method of mounting is not documented here, so reckon rather on standing it on the top and relying on its own weight as the main support.
