Re: Glide-Lock Vise Photos
steve this is not nice of you to tease me with such a shiny good looking vice.
 maybe when i am big and strong i would have one unless the festive season over powers you with generosity.i would be more than willing to test one for you.

Re: Glide-Lock Vise Photos
Okay, Good.. thank you for liking the photos of them. Here is a close-up of the finish of the rectangle part that the jaws move in. It has been surface ground and then block sanded by hand to 1500 grit paper.
As much time that these have in them they should be $9000 each. I am setting up to make five more and see if I can pick up some speed without losing quality. They are fun to work on and make though

Re: Glide-Lock Vise Photos
It has 2 3/8" total linear movement. I have a larger version drawn but I don't know if I like it. The Glide-Lock patent issued last month.
 You can see how it works in the drawings there at uspto.gov website.Link to the Glide-Lock patent. The BullsEye vise patent issued last month too. Steve Shepherd and I are joint owners of it. Here is the link to the BullsEye vise patent. Steve

Re: Glide-Lock Vise Photos
As usual, I see more in the picture...
Wanna 'splain the cross shaped wooden pieces? I've seen lots of strange things but if these are jaws, why the cross shape? For 4 different configurations? Are they prototypes for jaws that are gonna come with the vise? Brian
