Review: Great product - Great Vise but no fitment information had to work it out ! Vise does tight little more on one side than the other but you get what you pay for! No complaints ! Does its job well but manufacturer may need to be more aware of the machining process to get the jaws fitment more polished even
Review: Perfect budget bench vise! - Really pleased with this. Have moved into a new house with a dedicated workshop. Needed a bench and a vice and did not want to spend too much money. The bench was from a YouTube video (Building a Workbench With Storage in Less Than One Hour - Only One Plywood Sheet and Some 2x4's) The vice I choose was this one. Beautiful smooth operation, only downside was no instructions on how to mount. But then I thought how could they provide instructions everybody's bench is going to be different? Please see photos as to how I mounted.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how far does it open**
A: You can place pieces of wood up to 7" but be careful it's not too heavy.

**Q: What is the diameter and center to center spacing of guide rods (not screw to guide rod but distance between the guide rods)?**
A: Diameter is .47" and center to center spacing of guide rod is 5.83"

**Q: Can I purchase the handle separately?**
A: Unfortunately we do not have replacement handles available at this time.  I did request the Groz India send us replacement and we should see them before Summer.

**Q: is the handle included?**
A: Yes it is included.  I wanted a slightly tighter fit and found an old broken sledge handle to be a perfect fit.  But the included handle is very adequate.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overall good vise
*by J***H on June 29, 2024*

had some mixed experiences with it. Pros: Good Performance: Overall, the vise performs well and does the job effectively. It's a solid addition to my woodworking bench. Usability: Once installed, the vise is very usable and provides a strong hold on workpieces. I made the vise jaws out of beech wood, which enhances its functionality and appearance. Cons: Installation Challenges: Installing the vise was a bit of a struggle. A template for the installation would have made the process much easier. It took me a while, but I managed to install it. Despite the difficulty, I'm happy with the result. The handle: Constantly falls off unless you glue it. The screws are not holding it properly, which is frustrating. However, it’s an easy fix if you glue the handle in place. I did that with 5 min epoxy. Alignment Issues: I noticed a little movement, and the vise isn't perfectly flush with the table top. This could be due to the precision of the holes I drilled or the vise itself. It’s something to keep in mind during installation. Additional Thoughts: I'm currently using this vise as a front vise, and I am considering getting another one to install as a tail vise for my custom workbench. For those installing this vise, double-check your measurements and the precision of your drilled holes to ensure a better fit. Some reviews mentioned that the part is not at a perfect 90-degree angle, and this is true. However, I believe this is intentional, as it seems to help the screws clamp the vise better to the table. Despite the challenges during installation and minor alignment issues, the Vise is a good product that performs well once set up. It provides strong clamping power and is a valuable addition to any woodworking bench. For the price, it offers good value and functionality. If you're prepared for a bit of a challenging installation process, this vise is worth considering.
