I’ve tied on some different vises at stores and friends. I’ve only ever owned a Renzetti and while I got it used it was still a good bit of money for me at the time. I’ve never regretted it. There’s so many extras that I could buy if I had the need. If I never tied another jig I could get my investment back. The same goes for any quality vise or tool in general. Once you have good equipment under you your concentration goes to what you’re working on and not how to get it done on what you have instead of what you want.
