yea, im in the same boat. Ive looked at those ultra expensive vises. Are they really worth more than the stuff off the shelf at home depot? I mean, i know they are nicer, but both will hold stuff right?
If i break a $50 vise, and have to replace it...no big deal. If I break a $500 vise, I will really be upset.
The point is that whenever you go to work with it. Its there. that you dont have a piece move in the vise, or snap the jaw in the middle of the night and have to stop until you get a new vise, mount it...etc.Originally Posted by Pznivy
If you break a wilton pipe combo vise, post a picture. I used one in a shop and dont see that monster getting broken ever.
If your house was hit by a tornado, the vise would remain. The tradesman is a good way to get a quality vise into the hands of the masses, but the Pipe combo vise is for the professionals.
if you break a $500 dollar wilton vise the life time warranty will fix it.
Is it like snap on where you just send back the broken pieces? Or do I have to explain how I broke it? Prove "normal use"?
Base too? Is snapping off one of the feet on the base the same as breaking the jaw?
