I have been having trouble clamping my vice to the table at the fly tying club. This is due to the shape of the edge of the table. I have been looking on the net to see what is available, but the price of what is on the market is over the top. So I made my own. This is a prototype. Also swmbo likes it nice and tidy.

Nice piece of work- what is the wood? beech?
'til a voice as bad as conscience,
rang interminable changes,
on an everlasting whisper,
day and night repeated so-
"Something hidden, go and find it,
Go and look beyond the ranges,
Something lost beyond the ranges,
Lost and waiting for you,
Go."

Thank for your comments.
I  was just watching my daughter having her bed time snack. She has this snack on a try with a bean bag on the bottom of it. It moulds to you leg.
Sat the base on top of the try. I can now tie any where in comfort.  :8)

Looks very similar to my JVice base


Great - much better than a clamp or a traditional pedestal!

It is  similar Aliferste. I like the recesses. Thanks for the idea.
And I glad to say that this is made in Scotland.   :worms

I have made some adjustment to the vice base, after talking to people from the fly tying club and the casting club.
