Vise?

Another newbie question:

Setting up my work area and was looking for a good vise setup.  I want to secure the piece without damage, obviously.  I've seen a couple of examples of  a scrap piece of wood mounted in the neck pocket, but nothing real specific. 
- I'm concerned about stripping the pre-drilled holes, or compromising the fit of the neck in any other way.
Any clues?  Thanks

 
I use regular neck screws with a stick. Since Warmoth holes are greater diameter than a normal neck screw I put a tooth pick down in the drilled body hole and it wedges in as the screw is driven in.  It creates a tight fit that does nothing to change the diameter of the hole.

All of these bodies except the bass are hung that way.

Here is a one hanging in the vice after being sprayed with the dark burst color band.

I like your pegboard set up you got there tonar, that's a smashing idea...... :icon_thumright:
 
vice?

My only vice is cocaine and hookers.




At my old house I'd hang bodies from the rafters in the basement. Didn't have a place to put guitars though  :evil4:
