Thread: First rotary vice?

Threaded View

    Default First rotary vice?

    When was the first Rotary vice made?
    I always thought of them as a relatively new item, but today I received a Herters book printed in 1949 on fly tying & entomology. On page 289 is a drawing of a revolving vice model # 11R.
    So was this the first one, or were they built before this?


    Added the page.

    Something to ponder over Christmas.
