Nice tool. I have a drill press and would find that very useful. Living on a farm, I am often drilling odd angled holes either to repair a piece of equipment, or to build something for the horses to break. Right now, I'm building a 16 foot ramp so my dog can climb into a trailer.
Thanks for the chance.

I would LOVE to use that with my milling machine!
I’ve actually been wanting to fabricate some power feed bar nuts for my Bridgeport; they’re like 50-80 bucks each online.
This could be used for tons of other things on a mill.

Please toss my name in the hat, I can see several uses for that with a drill press.
Thank You

I'd like to enter, please.
I'd use it to press out small bearings out of equipment and to hold equipment on the bench at various angles to uninstall and install nozzles.

Put me in the running. Looks perfect to hold and cut and file fitting odd shaped new parts. Gun parts too.

Please count me in. I have many uses for the vice from drilling at different angles on my drill press and working on circuit boards and vintage audio equipment. Thanks for offering this karma.

Please include me. That would be handy for holding round and square stock for drilling operations to construct yagi and vertical antennas. Thanks!

Please include me in this generous karma. I don’t have a specific project in mind for this vise, but I do a lot of woodworking, auto repair and general tinkering and am looking to get deeper into gunsmithing (I’m submitting my FFL application this week or next). Despite having a dedicated shop with a number of other vises, I don’t have an angle vise and would use this for work holding in place of some of the other janky combinations of bench vises and clamps that I currently use for work positioning.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

Please include me in your generous karma. I'm actually doing this for my wife as she is the family woodworker. Just the other day i came home to her out in the shop using her Kreg jig to drill holes in the book case she is currently building. She would make good use of it.
Thank you for the Karma for the board.

This would be very helpful in my ongoing project to craft a semi-fancy walking stick. I am slowly fashioning a dogwood trunk into something that has engraved vines, a checkered hand hold and some other decorations. Being able to secure it in various orientations would make this effort much more productive. Please include me, and thanks for the generous karma.
I do not have an awesome project in mind right now but this would be very useful in my hobby level wood working to drill holes at exact angles.
