flyboyutah 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2007 Here,s some pictures of my travel box / base . I wanted to keep my vise portable and be able to stow away if needed. So came up with this idea. I routed out the shapes of the vise pieces , to what would be the bottom of the base { or the inside of the box when closed }. The wood on the upper half is three pieces { two outer ones are Birds Eye Maple and center one is Babinga } glued to a soild piece of oak to make the bottom half. steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flygirl 0 Report post Posted May 9, 2007 Wow...nice job. I see an open market here. Right now when I connect with people to tie I have my Fly Bin with stuff , but no place for the vise so I carry it separate. Since you're so good with the saw maybe you should consider making cases on the side. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
