Hi, Today I purchased a 7" quick release vice with wooden handle.I mounted it to a bench i made from plansnow.
I am primarily going to use it for holding wood to shave down and to sand.
My question is, should I mount wood guards on the inside of mouth to help from marring wood or do most just put a couple of blocks in there when they go to use it every time?
If I hard mount should I use a softwood like pine or hardwood like oak?
Also if i mount guards should they just be flush with the top of the vise or over the top, if so how much?
Okay last question should i countersink threaded screws from inside or should i send a lag bolt in from outside(obviusly not through)? The holes that are pre drilled in it are threaded maybe 1/4inch.
Thanks
