Abstract: The clutch lever includes a pivot at a proximal end which pivots relative to a mounting bracket and has an arm extending distally from the proximal end. An anchor recess is provided adjacent to the pivot at the proximal end. A post extends from an inner wall of the anchor recess. A clutch cable with a head at a distal end, and with a hole in the head, can fit within the anchor recess with the post passing through the hole in the head. The post and sidewalls thus support the clutch cable relative to the clutch lever. A cap encloses the anchor recess with a depression on an inner face thereof, sized to receive and support a tip of the post therein. The post is thus securely supported at both a base and a tip of the post.

Abstract: Vise jaws are provided with base plates having bolt receiving holes or slots passing therethrough near top edges thereof. Soft jaws formed of a readily machinable material are provided with threaded bores which can receive bolts passing through the holes or slots in the base plates, the bolts also pass into the threaded bores to hold the soft jaws to the base plates. The soft jaws can be provided with a modified contour to match a geometry of a workpiece to be held. A locating pin can cooperate with alignment holes and alignment bores in the base plates and soft jaws for precise alignment of the base plates and soft jaws together. Adapters are also provided which can attach to surfaces of base plates and be rotated to present edges at a variety of different angles for supporting of workpieces in various angled orientations.
