Where d'ya get the plastic-jaw vise?

I've got toolmaker's vises and machine vises, but they're metal. An
insulating vise would be handy to have.

Try a Panavise for the lab bench. The regular heads have replaceable
nylon faces, although metal jaws are available. There are also heads for
edge-clamping PCBs and assorted other styles. One of these guys, and add
the wide tray base.

Kinda like an Optivisor, should be a standard part of the kit. ;-)


Panavise cheap at Fry's.
