![]() 2947 forum posts 468 photos | I have the 4" from Arc Euro which fits quite well & reasonably priced... halfway down page... # 130 - 040 - 00800 which has done admirably so far, admittedly have had to tweak it to eliminate some jaw lift ( seems common on this type of vice ) & fitted T slot locating bar. Have put a precision type 2 vice on my wish list for next year... # 130 - 040 - 02000... maybe others who have this type already can give you ( and me ) further info on it's performance Usual disclaimer... George.
