Wow – have things changed since my last visit!  To be honest, my last visit was probably around the same time that I bought my Peak vice – which will be 2 years old this August!

Anyway, one of the accessories that I’m thinking about is a tying basket – something to catch all the clippings.  However, I’m not sure about something that mounts to the post like the Peak basket.  I think that something that tucks under the desk might be more desireable.

The profile plate would be nice, but the last photos I did (of the woven dragon) I thought turned out really nice.  The background is just a sheet of black craft foam, propped up against a big book.

Peak vise and accessoriesThese items really caught my eye though:

The lamp might be overkill – as I already have an OTT lamp, and I do have a roll of hook and look material – the hooks make great dubbing brushes…. but the tool would be nice ;^)  Now the magnifying glass – that I could really use – as I definitely don’t have the 20/20+ of my younger days.
