No Workbench Required When Using This All-Terrain Vise

Every good workshop has a good vise. But the need clamp things may arise when you are on the trail or at a job site and nowhere near a vise and workbench. For these scenarios, there's the Wilton 6-inch All-Terrain Vise.

The All-Terrain Vise slides into any 2 inch receiver hitch, and is kept in place by a hitch pin and set screws that keep the vise from jostling around when you're driving. It can be transported while attached to the hitch or removed. You can use the vise while it's attached to a hitch, but the All-Terrain Vise also comes with a mounting bracket so it can be attached to a table and used like a standard bench vise. 

This vise is available for $160 on Amazon, which is a small price to pay for a multi-function vise that can be taken on the road.
