RE: work holding device - DaveH - 04-09-2012 Good idea Bob, nicely shown. Very useful with the 3 jaw drill chuck, makes it very versatile DaveH RE: work holding device - EdK - 04-09-2012 I agree. Very useful tool. Ed RE: work holding device - Highpower - 04-09-2012 Admit it Bob. You just wanted to sneak a little woodworking in on us, didn't you? LOL. I agree, those are handy tools to have. I use the countersink / deburring cutter in mine quite often as well.
