Pattern Maker\'s Woodworking Vise
Copied from the famous Emmert Pattern Maker\'s vise, this is the most versatile stock control device you\'ve ever imagined. First, of course, it\'s a large, heavy and powerful cast iron bench vise. Its unique mounting system makes it far more than that. Unlock a lever and the vise rotates 180° to reveal a pair of carver\'s jaws just 2\" wide, which stand 2-1/8\" above the flat jaws to hold small or oddly shaped objects above bench level. Rotate the vise just 90° and you have open vertical clamping for working on legs, panels, and other tall pieces. Loosen another lever, and the entire vise swings upward up to 90°, putting the jaws parallel to the benchtop or at any angle in between. Main jaws are 13-3/4\" wide by 5\" deep, with a maximum working opening of 13\".
In any configuration, a crank on the front jaw can vary its alignment by up to 5° left or right, perfect for holding tapered legs or other stock. A 5-3/4\" x 5\" cast iron auxiliary jaw that mounts in the right side of the vise tilts 20° up or down, providing another option for holding tapered work. Pairs of spring-loaded dogs face each other across the main jaws; they set up to 2-1/4\" high for 3- or 4-point control of virtually any shape. The owner\'s manual includes a precise template for marking and mortising your bench to house the vise.
Vise includes complete mounting and operation instructions, 4dogs and weighs approximately 60 lbs.
This is a high quality vise that was manufactured in Taiwan.
