Customer Reviews

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.

A Third Hand!

The idea of multiple size wood vise is portable applications is a must.

Everything looks great

The moxon kit arrived in great shape and all the parts look good. I have not had time to build the vise so cannot comment on function yet but I expect it all to work beautifully.

Great Product, Excellent Service

I have to admit that this review is based on the contents of the kit and the excellent customer service in fulfilling my order promptly. I received the kit in less than two weeks, pretty incredible for a Christmastime purchase from Canada to Texas. I haven't had time to actually build the vise, but all of the components appear to be top notch. I actually received a call from Rob shortly after placing my order, which was a very pleasant surprise! This was my second purchase from Rob Cosman; the first was a dovetail saw, and it was flawless. I will continue to do business with this company since his Purple Heart Project supports my fellow veterans in life changing ways.

Moxon bench vise kit

Quality hardware. Quick shipping. Easy build. The Cosman mods are excellent. Drilling the wheels for the knobs caused a small chip in the chrome plate on one, but it is insignificant and is fully covered by the washer. The added height makes my saw cuts more consistent and more comfortable, and edge planing short pieces is easier. Wish I had acquired this years ago.

Perfect moxon vise

Perfect kit, very fast delivery. Well made and I love the spring versus my former vise. It’s not my first time buying from Rob Cosman, never had any problem.
