After seeing a video on the new vice in the works by Steve Shepherd, I got inspired to build a armrest for my bench, it cost under $20 and uses a 1/2" galvanized pipe, L joint, floor flange and some pipe insulation. Oh and I did use a couple of pieces padding form a weight bench that sadly has not gotten much use lately.:rolleyes: This may not be for everyone but seems to work well and moves out of the way when not in use. I might try and add a few more L joints to it so I can mount it under the table??

I attached a couple of pictures.

I should try an armrest sometime. I've never used one.

Man, your bench is spotless!
