I am designing my new bench and have been leaning towards a Nyquist style tail vise. I have a copy of the workbench book but am looking for more detailed plans for his vise, or similiar type vise. Has anyone built his style of vise?

I too hope to build Frank Klausz's bench someday. I saw it a week or so ago at a NJ woodworking show. It is absolutely gorgeous. Incredible, shiny finish on it and the tightest dovetails I've ever seen.
I need about 10 years more experience before I'm ready....

I tried but still found one I liked better in "Wood" magazine. Actually, I had to make some changes to the one in the magazine so everything would work. Here's what I came up with.
