DigiKey works just fine for "order by part number, correctly filled order coming rolling in on the UPS truck." |

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. http://www.panavise.com/index.html?pageID=1&page=full&--eqskudatarq=2 Kinda like an Optivisor, should be a standard part of the kit. ;-) -- Rich Webb Norfolk, VA |

I have it with the "tray base mount". I also own an Optivisor, probably had it for 30 years, or more ;-) My problem is no established lab space. This past week my wife is painting wood "eggs" for Easter. I had to bring the drill press in from the garage and set up in the kitchen, drilling a support hole in the bottoms, holding them on a nail bed while she paints; and a tiny hole on top for an eye screw. ...Jim Thompson -- | James E.Thompson, P.E. | mens | | Analog Innovations, Inc. | et | | Analog/Mixed-Signal ASIC's and Discrete Systems | manus | | Phoenix, Arizona 85048 Skype: Contacts Only | | | Voice:(480)460-2350 Fax: Available upon request | Brass Rat | | E-mail Icon at http://www.analog-innovations.com | 1962 | I love to cook with wine Sometimes I even put it in the food |

Oppie Wow, a flash from the past - Forbee's on Central Ave. (wasn't it?) And of course on my way back home to White Plains, had to stop a mile or two north of Forbee's / Lafayette at that Hamburger place on the east side of Central Ave, same side as Forbees. And Lafayette in Boston - visited many times in the late 60's - early 70's, wasn't it near where Commonwealth took a sharp turn at Brighton Ave? How about Olson Electronics, if I recall it was in Cambridge. No, maybe it was Tremont or Boylston, near the "Fatted Calf"? Rob |
