First, thank you to those who have supported us previously. There have been quite a few of you from this forum and your support is greatly appreciated.
I started PCBGRIP a few years ago because I was wanted a tool that would not only hold a PCB but would also help hold components or probe holders too. As we expand our product offering, we have just launched a crowdfunding campaign for our PCBGRIP Vise. Similar to our larger systems, this vise will not only hold your PCB, can can also help hold components and probe holders too. We wanted to make a tool that was smaller than our existing product and have designed a ‘FlatBall’ that allows our vise to be attached to the popular PanaVise® Model 201 base. The vise is rugged, made of aluminum with stainless hardware, adjust quickly, and will withstand high temperatures. Precut polyimide (an insulator that withstands high temperatures) tape will be provided for the vise faces if there is concern about electrical isolation.
Here is the link to the Kickstarter:

Thank you for your support,
Jason
