I did not have rotary for many years and was just fine with that. I found a Regal clone somewhere (hopefully the sponsors carry it) and it was an excellent vise. I could turn it to look at all sides and angles of the fly but tied with it stationary. The jaws clamped quickly and held as tight as you would ever need. J Stockard stocks them as a house brand for about $35.00. I only switched to a Renzetti because of a great buy found here on FAOL and I gave away the other.
