I'm finally getting around to pulling my 12" Record vise out of storage and installing it on a workbench. I have a question about suitable jaw liners for the thing. Any suggestions on the best wood for this? Maple, something a little softer? I'd even consider using magnetic jaws with rubber liners except that the biggest I've seen are 6" wide, way too small for this 12" vise.
Thanks for any suggestions.
