Good review. The renzetti saltwater traveler was one of the two vises I narrowed my decision down to choose from. I ultimately decided on the Peak vise and I couldn’t be any happier with my decision. Yes Peak has saltwater jaws which will handle the larger hooks you can get as well as many other options.
Awesome video and review. Really helpful in me making a decision about a vise. Like I said I like quality when I purchase a tool, gun, fishing tackle or whatever. I have always been this way. I may not use it that much but I just enjoy looking at things like this that I have and know it’s quality equipment. I’m so glad I found your channel. Thanks brother for sharing.
Nice review Adam! My one and only so far is the Griffin Odyssey u mentioned (a long time ago, u had that one as a recommendation in ur comments)… been very happy with it, solid clamps, all metal, very sturdy, easy to pack along on trips. Always solid info from you!! Thx again
since it's just for ME and I only make a few to use myself ---Amazon...Colorado Anglers 2001 EZ Rotary VIse ...$64.99 (2022 newbee rookie Bass & crappie Jig Tier upper) bought this one because the reviews were mostly 4 star and said it holds a 5/0 hook just fine & tight for the 1/2oz Jigs I like to use .... rotates nicely on the axis too ... I clamp mine to the bench , turn on my Ipad to SDG and learn from the MASTER JIG'R maker upper Guy 😎🤣 keep on sharing the Luv with your Informative videos & awesome talent
Another great video. Very informative vise comparison. I’m looking at get a new vise, the Renzetti is the one that seems to be the one for me. Thanks Adam, this really helps! Please do more comparison videos!
Great video Adam! I started out with the cheap $10 vise! I now have a Peak vise and have good luck with it, makes tying a lot easier! Thanks for sharing!
I bought a Renzetti SW traveler based on your review. It is a great vice , I did make a few up grades though . Ordered some Brass 10/32 x 3/4" thumb screws of of E Bay shortened thelm down to 3/8 of an inch and tapered the ends with a small file .NOW it really is a great vice . The brass thumb screws should have been used at the start not that much more cost involved . Thanks for your review : Ronnie Voges
That’s awesome man! Glad you like the vise, I love mine!! Only thing I can figure (I assume you swapped out the nylon screw) was to save on scratching the post, but who knows! May it bring you many years of successful tying!!
I started with the option 1. I got frustrated trying to get it to adjust to a bigger hook and bent the arm that tightens the clamp. I upgraded to option 2 but it was from sportsman’s warehouse. I never had a problem with any grease though. Currently I’m waiting on another one of the cheapos from Amazon. It’s a travel kit that includes all the tying tools. I should have listened to my wife and just packed my tying stuff to bring on this deployment.
Question is do you need the rotary for your flies. Being able to rotate the fly is more important just to see the other sides of the fly but using the rotary to put on material hardly
Ouu mama!! Yo de momento ya he roto 4 de esos de los que has mostrado en segundo lugar jajajajaa. Ahora tengo un stonfo muy recomendable tambien adam,pero el primer torno de montaje es como el primer beso jejeejeje nunca se olvida,podrias mostrar algun dia algunos dr esos primeros que todos hemos hecho feos y nos parecian lo mejor jejejeje reto!
how do you secure the vise to the table? would like to see your set up desk and chair if possible. i work off a work bench and l stand. l have been tying jigs for last couple yrs. Time for an upgrade. l have been watching your channel for the fews months. Very good content. thanks
Thanks Andre, appreciate the question and the support man! I use the C-Clamp option from Renzetti. My desk has a “lip” just big enough to secure the vise so it works out quite nicely for me. I’ve also used a pedestal but found it moved around a bit too much for my liking, and it was higher on the desk. C-Clamp for me! Thx again man!
I’ve been so impressed with the Renzetti I have one have to say if I was in the market for another vise to tie smaller stuff it would be another Traveler (the “standard” size vs the Saltwater that comes with jaws that handle the larger hooks. For the price, performance, and quality, they are hard to beat. Anything from Renzetti is going to be too notch!
No problem at all man, great question! That’s called a “bobbin cradle”. It allows you to hang the bobbin off the black part at the end/on top of the wire form, then use the rotary to apply your materials.
@@SDGCustomLurecraft ah I see ok well thanks for taking the time for answering me. I couldn’t figure out for the life of me what that was for. Appreciate it thank you
NP man! If you watch any of my videos (especially crappie jig builds) where I use chenille on the hook shank, or Palmer a feather along the body, you’ll see the rotary in action and how the bobbin cradle helps that process.
@@shawntitsworth4878 yup, I hear ya! Regardless of the species, there’s always some overlap in technique so you may be to able to glean from them… just think “up size” :) Thanks for the support man! Means a ton!
