Found out last night that my cheap import vise does not use standard 6" jaws. I needed to make some 3" tall soft jaws, and was just going to use the standard bolt spacing for kurt soft jaws. But I decided to check if the set of soft jaws I ordered the other week fit my vise, before I did anything. And sure enough, not even close. Thankfully I only bought one set of soft jaws, I was going to order more. Looks like I will be making a trip to the local metal supplier to pick up some aluminum bar stock and making my own soft jaws.
Is this common with the import vises?
