... not the hookers and cocaine type vices.
Its time to get a vice for the workshop.
What's good and what size do I need for general bike tasks?
Cheers all.

Record number 6 from ebay complete with rust. Awesome!
Got mine for £30 off eBay used by an old metal worker it's huge heavy has quick release mechanism. Try finding something new for that price.
Makes a world of difference from cup and cone hubs to straightening tent pegs.
Ok,
So something like this?
