An assembly is provided that may be supported on or above a variety of work surfaces and that is adapted to support a workpiece or a tool in a wide range of orientations. The assembly comprises a vise apparatus including (i) a first clamping component, (ii) a second clamping component, and (iii) a slide bar possessing a polygonal-shaped outer surface, the slide bar being at least partially interposed between the first clamping component and the second clamping component. The assembly further includes a first mounting apparatus including (i) a first clamping device configured to engage the polygonal-shaped outer surface of the slide bar so as to releasably hold the slide bar in fixed relation to the first clamping device, and (ii) a first attachment mechanism configured to removably secure the first mounting apparatus to a first support, the first attachment mechanism possessing a first configuration. Moreover, the assembly includes a second mounting apparatus including (i) a second clamping device configured to engage the polygonal-shaped outer surface of the slide bar so as to releasably hold the slide bar in fixed relation to the second clamping device, and (ii) a second attachment mechanism configured to removably secure the second mounting apparatus to a second support, the second attachment mechanism possessing a second configuration which is different from the first configuration. |
