A great addition to my small metal working arsenal.
I am learning engraving and this lets me hold small odd shaped pieces to be engraved or filed that I would have been unable to deal with without it. It came with protective lubricant that was easy to remove. Disassembly is easy and once the metal chips were removed and the bearings properly lubricated, the top part of the ball spins very easily and smoothly. It is heavy and when the two halves are locked together the rubber ring that it sits on holds it for any graving work. The vice seems to be strong enough and easily tightened or loosened with the key that comes with the ball. I have not used all the vice fittings that come with it yet and am puzzled by two pair of arms the would seem to be intended for very large work pieces and yet they do not fit the holes in the vice jaw holes. I would buy it again at twice the sale price I got it for.

Not all attachments fit
Had problems with some of the attachments posts being bent so they didn’t fit right and for some of the larger attachments the ball didn’t have the large holes to fit.Lucky for me my brother-in-law is a machinist and could fix them and drill the ball.Outside of that the ball itself is pretty good after modifications.

Anyone who purchases this item should know that they will be unable to use it for the described purpose because the rough condit
The engraving ball arrived in good condition. It was shiny and the tool set was complete. Other than that it's a piece of junk. There was no finishing on the bearing surfaces. The castings were unfinished. It was not suitable for use until I paid a machinist 2 provide the Finish

Good work for price, more expensive options for more precise work available.
This is going to work for me, I'm not doing any precise work with it, I just need it to hold my metal pieces from moving. The "Ball" part isn't shiny as it shows on pics.

It arrived in good time and was well packaged
I am a novice engraver and bought this as an entry level vise. It arrived in good time and was well packaged. I have used it several weeks now and I am quite pleased with it. The use of most of the accessories is quite intuitive but there are a few of those that I have no idea how to use. I would have expected the pins to fit better in the holes, so I expect to make my own pins with a better fit. Otherwise, this vise is sturdy and well made, it works well for me and i expect it will last me a lifetime with the occasional drop of oil to keep it all working smoothly.
