A bench vice is an essential addition to any children’s carpentry area, helping young builders work safer and more independently.

Use it to hold wood firm and steady for easier, safer sawing, drilling and rasping.

Sawing or drilling through a piece of wood is a huge achievement for a child. It requires focus, determination, and physical effort, making the sense of success even greater! But holding wood still while using tools can be tricky, and that’s where a bench vice makes all the difference.

I always recommend clamping the wood in a quality bench vice to hold it nice and steady. This allows the child to focus on the steady push-pull or turning motions of using the carpentry tools.
The vice also helps to keep hands away from the working part of the tool - this is especially important when sawing.

Our heavy-duty bench vice is designed with safety as a top priority. Unlike other swivel models, our vice features a fixed base, eliminating the risk of parts that kids can fiddle with and accidentally loosen. This ensures there’s no danger of the heavy vice falling or becoming detached. Additionally, the jaw opening has a built-in stop, preventing parts from coming loose or falling into children’s hands.

Features:

• Solid, simple, easy to use with no loose parts.

• Safer Fixed Base Design - no risk of kids dismantling the vice.

• High-quality, cast iron construction for long-lasting durability.

• Hardened steel jaws grip wood securely for steady work.

• Jaws open up to 100mm wide – fits a wide range of wood and materials

• Smooth swivel action handle to open and close the jaws – easy for children to turn and adjust.

• Built-in small anvil for hammering on.

• Easily bolts to any carpentry bench with 2 bolts (bolts not included as the length of bolt depends on the thickness of your bench top).

Please note that this is a real tool. It is NOT a toy. Our products are intended for use by children only under the direct supervision of a responsible adult.
