Hi all,
I'm building a new bench and I was wondering what everyone does to mount the face vice. Wich is prefered, morticing into the front rail or mounting behind the rail, using it as the face?
Thanks,
Angelo

Angelo,
I mortised mine into the back of the rail. It's a bit of trouble but I believe it is the best way.

Definitely agree with Terry. If all goes well I'll be mounting mine that way later this week.

I mortised my front vise flush with the edge of my bench. This way you can use the entire edge for a jaw.
