8-9" opening would be fine. Hopefully I can find something in the $50-75 range.

Where to buy, what to look for, etc.

TIA,

Bubba

I got a pretty nice one from Grizzly for something like that kind of price, tho' it was on special.

Mine is a 9" wide jaw with about a 10" opening; they have other sizes. It has the quick release lever and integral dog. It is essentially a knock-off of the Record 53. I have a 53 also, and cannot distinquish between the function of the two.

I prefer to replace the steel dogs with hard wood, to protect planes.

Good luck

Joe
