P.S. Google "qoutes about vices" There's quite a few!! Pity you don't live in Miami :wink:

P.P.S. Of all the tools I have (and I have quite a few) I don't posses a good bench vice :oops:

nice score. Maybe Kelly Johnson himself used it. my "vice" is buying radials. I have the same vice in my shop.

Nice collection, and much better than the Chinese pressed graham cracker vises that Horrible Freight sells.

I do see the crux of your real problem, I can actually see parts of your bench which means you don't have nearly enough 'objects of interest or functionality'.

There's another 20ft of bench around the corner that you can't see...

I think you are misguided in your hobby. You should try a hobby that requires the use of explosives:

I used to have a pyro licence... I could clear a room at a party by merely throwing an innocent cigarette packet on the table from across the room & shutting the door with me on the other side of it... people would pile out of windows... 8)

Then after a few parties people would be at ease again & ignore the cig packets... :wink:
