Gun vise recommendations

Curious what everyone is liking these days for a basic gun vise to mount/level scopes, install brakes, clean, etc

Seems like Tiptons quality is going downhill so wondering if anyone has any other brands they like/recommend.

Def open to that- by chance have a picture of something you made?

I have a RealAvid, but I wouldn't recommend it if you need to bang on anything - I've bent its cross-support guide rods twice now on relatively light stuff, including a tough AR barrel nut. That said, they do warn specifically against heavy-duty use. For lightweight stuff though, it's an excellent vise. The jaw blocks are pretty well thought-out, and handy.

if you have an old vise, 2 boards covered with leather or felt will make it very useful. these just have leather stapled on them with a piece on the bottom for a hinge.
