The invitation is always there. I would like to come over there too but my 
health problems Keep me from doing it.

I'd come over at the drop of a hat! It's just a 
matter of money (kids in college...).
Would be great to visit old friends, wouldn't 
it?
If I can swing it you'll be the first to 
know.

      Thanks Mart,
I will look it up just for the heck of 
        it.
Any chance of you getting back to the Sowbug, it has grown quite 
        a bit since you were here.

          The Vosseler is a great example of the 
          fact that a vise is highly personal. Some like it; I did not care 
          for at all. 
          Two pair of jaws... why? No weight in the 
          base, but a suction cup instead, which just does not work on 
          many surfaces, and results in an extremely wobbly vise. 
          Well, *that* really sucks ;-)

                    Check out the Vosseler. There is no jaw like it. The 
                    base is such that you will pick up the desk before the vise 
                    breaks free of the desk.

                    You guys arent much help!  :)
 
Just 
                    kidding, I have been looking at the Nor Vise or the 
                    Mongoose.

                        Bob,
I go along with Mike on this. I 
                          have about 20 vises, I collect them, and each have 
                          their own pros and cons. I have a Danvise and can 
find 
                          a number of things that don't suite me but others 
love 
                          them. I have a Regal that is a fast production vise 
                          but if your hands are bad, squeezing the lever might 
                          be hard on your hands. The Norlander is a fast vise 
                          for tying some flies like the Woolly Buggers. I can 
go 
                          on but I think you get the idea. I use the Dyna King 
                          Barracuda Jr. For me it is the ideal vise in size as 
I 
                          do shows and it is just the right size to travel. I 
                          also have two other Dyna King vises that are smaller 
                          and I take one of them when just doing a local demo 
                          instead of taking the Jr.along and having to break 
                          down my tying station. My Jr. and complete tying 
                          station fits in a attache case as one unit along with 
                          the tools I will be using at the 
                          show.

                            Boy, Bob this is really a 
                            personal preference type of thing.  I started 
                            on a Thompson A vise, then to a Renzetti Traveler 
                            and then a Regal.  A few years ago I bought a 
                            NorVise.  I have tied on a few others.  
                            Each seems to have its particular strength and 
                            weakness.  If you enjoy your vise, don't 
                            change.  If it no longer suits your needs there 
                            are lot's of vises and opinions.  I think Hans 
                            W. did a fine article a few years back on vises 
that 
                            I think you could find on the internet.  The 
                            best thing to do if you want to make a change is to 
                            find a full service shop that has several of the 
                            vises that you are considering and ask to tie on 
                            them.  Many will let you sit down and try them 
                            out (at least mine did).  Lacking that if there 
                            is a tying group in your area find out when they 
                            meet and sit with them and tie on theirs.  It's 
                            the best way to decide, especially if you are 
                            thinking of stepping up to a much more expensive 
                            vise.

Mike

                              Whats the differences between the lower priced 
                              (100 and below) and the higher priced

                              course its the only one Ive owned so I dont know 
                              any different.
