Homemade Vise

I am a frugal Yankee, cheap as my wife says, and can't justify spending the kind of money they get for rotary vises. I have the means to do it so I built my own. I studied Slips vise and looked at the Renzetti catalog and built one similar to the 600 plus dollar one they offer. Mine is made completely out of Titanium scraps I have been saving over the years from previous jobs. I did break down and buy the jaws as I didn't want to take the time to make them. Some things are better off bought. It will be a pleasure to use and I can't wait to retire my PIA 18 dollar one. Paul
