WEN CV413 3.25 in. Compound Cross Slide Industrial Strength Benchtop and Drill Press Vise, Black

The base was smaller than expected so we fabricated something to fit, but this vise is well build and strudy. Excellent quality!

Buena calidad fácil de usar

I got my Wen 4.25 cross slide vise this morning. I don’t know how Amazon can deliver it overnight for free? Box was in perfect condition and I knew I was off to a good start. I unboxed it and started playing with it. It comes with the slides locked and handles off. I assembled it and adjusted it and I was pretty excited about how nice it looked and functioned. I disassembled it and cleaned it up and used valve lapping compound on all the contact surfaces. Lubed it up and reassembled. It works really great for an 80.00 vise. I read reviews about the quality and I think it’s great for the price. You can probably get a 700.00 to 1,000 dollar vise that is near perfect. Everyone would still buy this vise because they don’t want to spend the money on a high quality piece, myself included. I did buy 4 new set screws and nuts to replace the set screws that doesn’t have nuts. It made a big difference because I had screws back off when I was playing with it. I have yet to mount it or clamp anything in it but I don’t see any problems with it. The casting was smooth and looks good also. I wanted a Wilton 5” for my JET IDP22 but I couldn’t get any Dimensions on the base to see if it would work with my table slot locations. It looks small on my drill press… if you are willing to spend some time on it, you will have a good tool…

Llegó antes de la fecha prometida. La herramienta superó mis expectativas, es muy suave en su manejo, y su maquinado en sus superficie es excelente. Sujeta las piezas a trabajar fuerte y sin maltratar.

Bon outil, fonctionne bien
