[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1091822, member: 90399"] Well I have to say... This little vise I made is stronger than I even thought it would be. [B]I clamped a barreled action into it yesterday. And with a cutting die I threaded the barrel for a muzzle brake![/B] It sincerely did not even budge 1 millimeter. No flex, no movement. When I was torquing on it with the die it stayed exactly where it needed to be. Before yesterday I was impressed with how the vise turned out looks wise. And I was fairly confident it would hold together fine. Now I'm very confident this is stronger than most plastic rifle vises you could buy from a store. And more ridged! (Again I'm not a "handy" person. My projects don't usually turn out as intended. But dang it feels good when you think of something in your mind; spend the time to create it; and it works as you wanted it to). :) [/QUOTE]
