Love the Moxon. I'm already sawing away more as I practice the art of the dovetail joint in preparation for making a bathroom wall cabinet sometime this year, I hope.
While I was making it, I only vaguely foresaw the bite the Moxon would take out of my bench space. Mine has just 18" between screws, but it's still 30" left to right. I can leave it in place and still have chiseling room to its left, so that's OK while making dovetails. But once the joint making is over, the Moxon is a hulking behemoth on the bench. What to do?
Inspired by a Creeker (sorry, I didn't look you up before posting this), I decided to hang it up in one of the few remaining unused spaces in my garage shop. Here's my solution:

It's just a 3/8" aluminum bar from Home Depot, set into two brackets made from pipe strap. One is raised to give a slight downward angle and prevent the vise from sliding off. At probably fifteen pounds, it might tend to bend the bar over time, so I can foresee going to a 1/2" bar if need be.
The reward is the clearest bench I've had in a very long time:
