Safety Issue - Am I being too picky
 

Sounds like one of those Screwfix ones. I bought one and found the

workpiece
clamp doesn't clamp properly, so I discarded it, and fitted an Engineers
Vice that I had spare lying around! works a treat.

John,
If you hadn't had an engineers vice would you have
used it as is or did you think is was unsafe?

Unsafe - Yes, if I didn't have that handy vice I would have not used it with
the clamp provided.

Yes - That's what I thought too.
Has it also got a warning notice on the font edge of the baseplate.
If so what language is it in? Mine started "Achtung"!....
Never did find out what it was all about... :-)
Thanks,
Roy
