In article , says...

This is the wood vice I have now. It works great except that sometimes I
need to hold a part in it that requires the "jaws" to be taller.

What happens is that the part hits the guide rods and screw mechanism at the
bottom of the jaws and I can't properly hold the part.

Does anyone know where I can get a wood vice with "taller" jaws?

Otherwise, I may just make my own...

Thank you for any help you can offer.

Take a look at the Emmert clone that Woodcraft offers
http://www.woodcraft.com/Product/200...attern-Makers-
Vise.aspx. The jaws are about 2 inches deep in the "normal" position,
about 3-1/2 "upside down", and more than 8 inches sideways.

There are some tricks to using it and it's a bit fiddly to keep adjusted
but I consider it money well spent.

For about the same money you can get the Lee Valley twin-screw mechanism
http://www.leevalley.com/US/wood/page.aspx?p=45114&cat=1,41659 that
gives you jaws any size you want to make them and screws up to 2 feet
apart.
