What type of vise do you stockmakers use?

Hi:

I need to update my vise that I have been using for years as it is no longer fit to use. Would you be so kind as to send pictures of your vise or whatever you use. I am thinking of buying a wood vise that mounts under the workbench and is flush with the top of bench. Like the ones that we all had in high school shop class.

I have a 125mm machinists vice that I could make an extension for to help support the stock but I have no idea if that is a good idea or not.

Any suggestions?

TIA,

Franchi

I use the Versa Vise available from Brownells. I think there is also a Chinese knockoff available somewhere too. I did see a vise at Woodworkers Supply that looked interesting. If I remember correctly it was a musical instrument maker's vise.
