A Moxon Vise, named after Joseph Moxon (who described the vise in his book titled Mechanick Exercises), is a great vise, and best of all it is easy to build yourself. A Moxon vise is especially useful for cutting dovetails and sawing because it holds the material rock solid, and the middle of the vise is not obstructed by vise hardware. All you need is some 8/4 hardwood for the jaws and our "Cosmanized" hardware kit to make whatever vise size to best suit your needs.

We "Cosmanize" the WoodRiver Moxon Vise kit by adding two vise springs, two self-lubricating bushings, two revolving knobs, drilling and tapping a hole in each of the wheels for mounting the revolving knob, and providing a strip of cork-rubber to line the jaw with. These additions take the WoodRiver Moxon Vise kit to the next level.

Product Details:
  • Moxon hardware only (Kit DOES NOT include wooded jaws).
  • 2 x 5 inch hand wheels.
  • 2 x 3/4 inch x 8 inch long acme threaded screws.
  • 4 x Acme threaded nuts with washers.
  • 2 x 3 inch long jaw opening springs (compressed spring length is 3/4 inch). 
  • 2 x revolving knobs.
  • 2 x 3/8 inch long bronze self-lubricating bushings.
  • 4 x 24 inch long cork / rubber self-adhesive strip.
  • General instructions for making the traditional style Moxon Vise.

    I love the updated that Rob made top the Woodcraft Moxon Vise! My only comment is to provide a instructional guide to assemble the Cosmanized WoodRiver Moxon Vise. I had to review your YouTube video a couple of times to catch the fine points of the assembly.

    Great Moxon option

    I have purchased several moxon kits over the years, but this one gives the most for the money! Leave it to Rob Cosman to raise the bar in making available quality woodworking tools!

    Moxon vise

    Just finished assembly of my moxon vise using Rob’s kit. The enhancements truly make for a wonderful vise. I highly recommend going this route. Everything thing works smooth and precise. Thanks Rob!

    Cosmanized moxon vise

    I built my moxon vise from laminated Baltic birch plywood and added a MDF work surface
    The build came out perfect as the vise jaws move smoothly and provide excellent workpiece holding . The springs and bushings are key to the smooth movement!
    I’ve cut two practice dovetails using the vise. well, the device worked perfectly, but I need to work on my sign techniques and remember to mark out the waist side of the pin so that I don’t accidentally cut out the wrong section which I did my first attempt what a knucklehead. My second attempt came out pretty good, and I work on my sawing and chiseling techniques but the Moxon vise is making the work easier.
