Abstract: This invention is a combination automatic and manual vise apparatus selectively operable (1) as a normal manually operated table vise structure; and (2) as a power driven vise structure. The automatic and manual vise apparatus includes a main support base assembly; a manual vise assembly connected to the main support base assembly; and an automatic vise assembly connected to the main support base assembly and the manual vise assembly. The manual vise assembly includes a stationary jaw assembly connected to the main support base assembly and a moveable jaw assembly connected to the stationary vise assembly. The moveable jaw assembly includes a handle member which is rotated to move a jaw member relative to the stationary jaw assembly in a conventional manner. A lock member is used to secure the handle member against a rotation when utilizing the invention as a power driven vise structure.
