It's looking like my dear, sainted, mother will be senidng a shiny LN #7 my way for my 30th (way to go, mom) so it looks like I'm going to be needing to make a bench. Rather than just sit around theorizing about bench making.
So here're my questions:
A) What's the plural of vise? Vises? Visen? Visii? If we go with Computer Industry Standard English Mutilation Protocol, it should be "visen" to match the plural of Vax or Box (vaxen and boxen respectively).
B) Who makes those nice, German, black face visii hardware and assorted tail vise slides, etc. Anke? Ulmia?
C) Does anybody know anybody who caries the same visen as fine-tools.com, but domesticlly? I know Woodcraft carries some black visen, but they don't appear to have the full line up. I'm especially looking for the twin screw HD face vise fine-tools carries, but without having to ship it from Germany.
