Ok I think I'm going to go buy a proper vice today.
I have this tiny wee mini vice that's been useful up until now. But the vice it's self started to slip and rotate on the work bench.
I wrapped the arms in a towel to avoid marking it which seemed to work.
Bought the spacer kit for £18 and paid £6 for an allegedly fast delivery...
Soft vice jaws? Are these just rubber covers? Will Google.
The good news is that I got the rear break hose threaded through the frame with no bother at all. Took all of two minutes. Last internal routed frame I worked on was a 2 hour faff.
