As the title says I'm looking into tying. First question is about the vise. Do you like the clamp on style or the weighted base?
I have a nice table/ workbench to tie on. It's a maple 1 1/2 inch thick clean bench I use for fine wood working like dove tail work so clamping on is not a problem. I'm just wondering if working at the edge gets hard on the body. But the weighted base might move.
All that may be moot because my next question is to recommend a kit. One that you would be proud to give as a gift. But not so expensive you decide to keep it for yourself!
Cabelas has kits. Is this a good place to look are they quality enough; or, will they end in frustration?
So what do you usually recommend? I did a search for tying kits and such but found nothing.
