Drill Press Vise Preferences
« on: February 17, 2017, 09:18:09 AM »
What does everyone use for a vise on their drill press.  I finally bit the bullet and ordered a press that should be waiting for me when I get home from work!  :punk:

Looking at Acme Tools website I see a Bora 4"vise for $22, and Irwin 4" vise for $25, and a Wilton 4" vise for $30.  Anyone have any experience or know if there is much of a difference between brands?  Or if price really matters?  It looks like they all bolt on with 4 bolts so I'm not too worried about it moving...

Thanks,

Michael

Recently bought a Delta one for about $16 off Amazon that I'm plenty happy with. As long as you can hold it square, whichever one should work I would think.
