Love my new vice. Dont know what i did without a vice. This vice is very nice.

This was a lovely item to receive. The vendor was in Sheffield and the box it was packed in suggested strongly that this was a British item. The vice oozed quality with well fitting jaws when the vice was closed. They open to 100mm and they are moved by a lever that is the right thickness for the jaws. The acme thread for moving the jaws was nice and deep. The body of the vice was nicely cast and it was lovely to see the Eclipse name on one side and the EMV-3 number on the other side of the body. Both of these alpha-numerics had been cast as an integral part of the body. There were also some production n umbers cast into the body as well.I bought this vice to complement some of the woodwork and metal work which I undertake with a CNC machine. I believe that this vice is easily capable of satisfying my hobbyist needs and it should provide a lifetime of service. If you have heavy engineering needs then it is probable that a larger vice will be needed. I guess that this 4 inch bench vice will suit most hobbyists and DIY projects. I understand that for those who want a base that swivels, there is one available. The holes in the baseplate are large enough to take an M10 bolt and there are two of them used to fix the vice to a bench. I would happily recommend this vice to family and friends. It's is real pleasure to see and handle something which is very well made.

Very happy with Amazon service, quality of product and follow up. All together the start to finish experience is great. Rob Maxwell.

Jaws closed evenly and matched exactly. No free play in anvil. Leadscrew operates smoothly and handle slides from one position without having to struggle. Good Traditional quality tool. Yes I would buy again above any unknown make.

Buen acabado y robustez
