The top where the collets are stored is very difficult to pry off with out damaging the plastic. Once I did get it off the plastic was roughed up, making the handling of the vise uncomfortable.

I was hoping for a better product from General, but it’s just not as good as I was hoping. The fit of everything just doesn’t feel quality, and I was hoping the plastic know at the end of the handle would turn smoother as you hold it against your hand. While it does turn, it’s just a friction fit of plastic against plastic and doesn’t feel comfortable when you are drilling. The metal tip also feels like it’s grinding against the threads instead of screwing or unscrewing smoothly. While it will work for it’s intended purpose the quality is okay at best.

This is the worst made tool I've seen in a long time. The collets are badly asymmetrical, and the threads on the part that holds the collet are so shallow that I can just pull it right off without twisting. I'm returning it.

I purchased this on some online recommendations. It has a nice design, a good grip and I especially like the swivel on the top to make drilling easier. Where this unit fails is in the colletts that are included. These are critical as they determine what size bit you can hold. No where could I find a descriptor of what sizes these colletts would accept. Once I openend the package I could see the size of the openings on the colletts varied, two of them looked very large. Further testing shows that they handle very few small size drill bits. I had hoped to use a 2-56 tap and found there was not a collette to securely hold that size.I plan to return the item and look at Starrett brand pin vise. If you are looking for a vise that will handle small size bits, that is those in the .085 size, it would be best to look elsewhere.

I use this pin vise to clean carburetor jets and other small holes. Works great, beats having to use my fingertips to try to turn those small drills.

It works just fine.

Not the very highest quality, but it has what I was looking for, and after a few uses it seems it should last several years of light use. That's a guess, but it's as least as good as the previous version I used for several years and would still be using if someone hadn't 'disappeared' one of the collets.

CAUTION: This pin vise does NOT come with the drill bits shown in the picture. You only get the pin vise and extra collet that is shown. Drill bits not included.Other than the deceptive photo, the pin vise is well constructed. As noted in another review the end cap is attached really tight and unless you are really strong will need to pry it off.
