I grabbed a set of stops a few weeks back. After using them several times I am constantly impressed at the simplicity and durability of these little guys.  Not only do they keep me from scratching the knife blade they make setting the angles a snap by consistently holding the stones in the same spot.  Great product at a great price.  Easily worth the cost of admission.
Thanks!!!

It is a we130.  About three weeks old.  I sit the attachment into the vice…fits nicely in the middle.  When clamping the vice pushes the attachment up just a bit and then it locks in place.  If I grip the attachment I can wiggle it just slightly with minimum effort.  I would agree it should be tight…just don’t see how it could be clamped wrong.

Thanks for the reply.

I picked up a chamois today for 10$ and gave it a try.  I believe this is a much better option over the painter’s tape.  It seems to grip the blade tighter than the tape.

On a side note, I started playing with the scissor attachment today and found it is wiggly in the mount.  If I add the chamois in the vice it takes most of the play out of the attachment.  This is a good work around, but I am surprised there is play in the first place.
