The Lake Erie screw has worked very well. This last build I used the Benchcrafted Classic metal screw with the 14" crisscross to build the same type vise. Of the two vises, the cost is a wash, the BC kit is slightly easier to install, and works a little slicker. Holding power of either is very good with the BC maybe slightly better and a little faster in use. The Lake Erie kit is a prettier install and looks "correct" on the bench. Either of the two will do the job well.<br /><br />kenI'm a OK guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11843155822153452980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-60452785156414336302019-08-29T07:42:52.397-07:002019-08-29T07:42:52.397-07:00Sylvain,

This bench fits in the back of the Honda "Fit" with room to carry the tool box as well.

Of course he has everything already brought to the place of assembly when starting the chronometer. <br />This and assembling the needed tool collection is what might take the longest time. An if I had to go to help the son I would first have a 40' road travel. <br />The point is: if assembling the workbench was not easy, one would not make the effort to bring it along. And working without a good support/holding capability is always risky.<br />SylvainAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12079088.post-87768572252932960642019-08-28T18:29:13.414-07:002019-08-28T18:29:13.414-07:00Sure is compact storage, you make a good point
