Building a new bnech and putting a leg vise on. The top is 3" thick - my question has to do with the location of the screw. It seems I read that 9" from the bench top is a good comprimise between strengh and distance from the the top, but can't seem to find that again.
Anyone have any thoughts on this as to their own experience, or can anyone remember reading the same thing? I've googled with no luck as well as gone through Scwartz's book and the Workbench book. Guess it's one of those things that if I'm not looking for it, I'll see it the next day.
