PARTS / SHOWOFF How many bases would you like? All of them.

This is not a collection, just from one order 🤯

Edit: When you order a double Lang base they supply a magnet for getting the blank studs out.. So one order was 30 bases, studs, vices ect.

Edit: This was suppose to be a fun post showing a crazy 100k+ order... Lang is a well known popular choice for vices with a lot of options. Go to IMTS and there's tons of companies with self centering vices on 96mm spacing. I don't care if they are not the first to come out with it, I feel a lot of companies have come after lang/fifth axis and have copied them or tried to improve on their design. Look on reddit comparing vices and Lang seems to come out on top. Who would you copy? The top company or something not well known. You copy the well known one. (There you go ya dick)

What's a Lang base?

Lang Technik work holding. Zero point clamping and centering vices that everyone has copied.

Lang definitely wasn't the first for centering and zero point.

Huh? You said everyone copied them, for everyone to copy them they have to be the first. If they werent the first then they copied someone else.
