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.
The modifications to the Wood River kit make this a great tool. I love the knobs on the hand wheels and the springs are a great idea for opening the vise one handed. The rubberized cork is also a great function adder. A bit pricey but I think it’s worth it to have it all in one kit. I made my vise jaws from ambrosia maple and used design ideas from Popular Woodworking #283.
Great Moxon Kit! Love the springs to open the vise without pulling all the time. Worked great. Everything in kit is quality! Thanks Rob and team!
This vise was exactly what I needed. Good machining and love the added turn handles! Super fast shipping as well. Highly recommend.
the instructions sent with this order were for the unmodified moxon vise, not the updated one. you should send the improved instructions with the vise instead of making us watch the youtube version over and over.
This thing is great. A game changer, well worth the money. I’m addicted to your videos, so much great information.
