It worked well and I got a lot of use out of it. Eventually one of the bolt-holes stripped out from the jaws I used most regularly. Its tough to use for position work because you need to put a lot of leverage on the wrench when you snug down the bolts, alternating side to side, works best if you can chuck it in a vise. John. |
