How To Purchase
Miscellaneous Tools
This is the page for the miscellaneous
tools that don't fit anywhere else. I started out trying to group them
by type, but like my workshop it ended up as one big jumble.
Vises - the kind you screw to the edge of your bench.
(M38A Left) Just a small (5.5" wide) woodworking vise. Good for a small hobby bench. $4.00
(M38B Right) "Handi-Vise" Per instructions on the back of the box, the big triangle screws to the bench and the smaller one on top acts as a wedge. $3.00

(M37C Right) And a heavier one, 2.75" jaws and no markings that I can see. 7.50
Shopsmith Maxi-Clamp Set (M36)
