Anybody know or have a small (3" or so jaw width) vise they don't need ?

Rotatable would be even better, w/a clamp is ok.

Who would sell such a small vise ? Can't find it in Ace, True Value, MC Home Depot, all the
vises here are much too big.

Cheers 🙂

Re: Need a 3" Vise

+1 on the Record at Panda. You'll get a nicer tool if you get that british make- minimal play, smoother turning, stronger metal. Should set you back... about 3K or less? If you ever come across a "Paramo" that would be good too.

Why are you decided on a cute one? I thought bigger is better, you'll have more jaw clearance and holding power. (I have a problem right now where to put my vise, am in sore need of a DP+vise table, sort of my metalworking/heavy tools station.)
