Maybe Im the only one. But I keep my setup in the upstairs of our house. We dont heat the upstairs 24/7 like the rest of the house. So when I start engraving early mornings in the winter my ball vice is the last thing to warm up and my hands get frozen stiff. So after trying a few things (including trying to remember to take the vice downstairs at night) I found the simplest solution. Wrap a shop towel around it and fasten it with a 2 bread ties linked to make a large bread tie. The ball vice is still easy to use and spins freely. Now you dont have to touch the cold surface Just a friendly reminder to keep your digits warm
