Hey Norm, have you seen this one by Marc Petitjean? http://www.petitjean.ch/eng/MPVise/masterVise.asp
Too pricey for me at a $740 MSR, but still a cool looking vise. And a C-Clamp the converts to a Pedastal? Now THAT’S innovative!
Petitjean is probably best known for his Magic Head and Magic Tool.

i watched a guy at a fly fishing taking 20 minutes just to set one up. it was like watching paint dry!
renzetti has one thats more expensive but easier to set up and use
I have this vise and love it. freddy
Very cool Vise BB and yes it is pricee but probably worth it if ya got the money to spend.
Freddyg:
How well does it work as a pedestal? I have found that base weight plays a huge factor in stability. The lightweight nature of that convertible clamp/base has me wondering.
