Need some.
Who makes them besides Burton and swix? What do you guys use and like?
I am not a fan of buying ANYTHING from burton, but they are cheaper than the swix.
Im one of those burton haters haha

I would just get a little creative with some 2x4's, generic clamps and possibly some drawer liner.

This one looks pretty good b/c it locks the board down: Amazon.com: Tools4Boards BoardLoc Snowboard Vise: Sports & Outdoors

I like how this one has 3 angle options for edging: Jons Ski Tuning - Starfix Snowboard Vice Set

Man, how has Tognar not caught on at this site? Check them out. They have the finest selection of tuning and repair tools on the web. I use them all the time.

Me likey Tognar. Me get Skivisions edge tool for Xmas. Me slice deli cuts of meat on my snowboard edge now.

Me just steal two milk crates from behind McDonalds and have good enough vice.

That Toko one looks very very similar to the Swix, both of which seem solid...
