    Garic,

    That's a copy of the Regal Vice. The Regal Co has a few different models including a rotary but I don't believe that they make an inline rotary vice. It's a great vice holds larger hooks well. If you tie many small flies 32-20 there isn't alot of room around the jaws. Sorry but I wouldn't recommend to anyone in buying a knockoff. Get a Regal.
    If you really need an inline rotary vice Rensetti is the way to go. IMO

    yeah I know about the regal vises, I was just using that pic as an example in case I didn't describe clearly what I was looking for. If I can' t find a proprietary vise I may have a go at modifying one I have already

    As Tom suggested....I would not recommend the Regal "knock offs". They just do not work as smoothly as a true Regal. I have the Regal and really enjoy it. I also have the Renzetti Traveler which is rotary. Regal came out with a rotary, but, I have no experience with it, so I cannot make a comment on it.

    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    Regal makes an inline rotary vise called the Revolution. It is the type with the jaws horizontal and offset form the shaft. The jaws spin freely. Sort of the same idea as the Norvise.

    Does the Danvise qualify?

    Danvise is a cam like the Renzetti. Why do you want the Hand Clamp style?

    Garic,

    I wish I could help. I purchased a Snowbee-Waldron about a year ago and it is all the vise I will ever need.
