I have obsessively researched vise options for a future roubo build. When I build my bench and vises, I plan to buy [this] (http://www.amazon.com/WoodRiver-Woodthreading-Kit-1-1-TPI/dp/B0039ZEW16) wood threading kit. For $60, plus the cost of a few 1.25" maple dowels, I can make as many vises as I want, and use threaded wood for other purposes like screw advance jigs.
If it comes out nice, I might even sell cheap vise kits, with like 3' of threaded hard maple dowel, a board with through female threads, and a board with stopped female threads (to make attaching handles and stuff easy). Seems like a major unfilled niche in the woodworking marketplace, if you want a wood vise, the only options are pay out the ass for Lake Erie tool works, buy something antique, or buy specialized tooling to make your own. Really, I wish someone else would steal this idea and sell me a cheap wood vise kit!
like this? I've been looking to pick up a set or drive over to mastercar and just build my own kit.
I think you would need one of these, of the right size:

Which probably makes the $10 price tag less attractive!
