The pattern maker’s vice (vise) will hold objects up to 150mm (6”) wide. This is reduced to 120mm (4 3/4”) when using the tilting plate fitted. The jaw size is 160mm x 340mm.

This vice will last you a lifetime. CNC machined to the finest tolerances from brass and aluminium, hand assembled and tested in-house, the HNT Gordon Non-Racking pattern makers vice is an elegant addition to the workshop ensuring years of pleasure for the hobbyist and professional alike.

A unique design feature of our woodworking pattern makers vice is the hidden thread in a self-cleaning shaft. This self-cleaning system means that no dust or shavings can enter the thread or bearing surfaces, meaning no wear can take place over a long period of time.

Included with the vice is two cork/rubber liners to glue on the front and back jaw for better work holding when dealing with timber that is not quite parallel. The liner is cut slightly oversized to allow you to trim the edges once it has been glued. We use contact adhesive glue to attach it onto the vice. You can get this in spray cans or wipe on form. Thickness of the cork/rubber liner is 1.5mm.

Accessories available for purchase:

Tilting vice jaws are available for holding odd-shaped stock like chair legs and musical instrument parts. The tilting jaw fits into a ½” hole in the back jaw.
