1181 forum posts 669 photos	My no-name vice I use in the Carport has a feature I love, and that every vice should have. That is a Cross-handle that is held by friction so that it doesn't try to attack hand or fingers when in use. Yesterday and this morning I've been busy modifying my Record No.1&3 and Columbian to have this feature. Columbian below. Very easy to do as well. What have you done to yours?
