The crank handle that comes with the vice is big and heavy and clumsy. A used
6-point 15mm deep impact socket and a small breaker bar works far better. The
reason to use a 6-point deep socket is that it will stay on the vice until
intentionally removed, and not that great torque is needed.


My answer to the Kurt handle question. The hub used to be a deep
socket.
