Adjustable vise jaw assembly

A jaw assembly for use in supporting and securing an object in a vise, comprising:

• a block having a plurality of apertures, the block further having a plurality of channels in a rear surface of the block, each of the channels having a first segment in fluid connection with an inlet hole and having a second segment in fluid communication with at least one of the apertures;
• a plate secured to the rear surface of the block, the plate adapted to enclose the channels;
• and,
• a plurality of pins, wherein each pin is located within an aperture and is in slidable engagement with the particular aperture.

A jaw assembly for use in supporting and securing an object in a vise, comprising:

• a block having a plurality of apertures, wherein each aperture is spaced a distance from a lower edge of the block, the block further having a first and second channel passing through a rear surface of the block, each of the channels having a first segment and second segment, the first segments in fluid connection with a first inlet hole and the second segments in fluid communication with at least one of the apertures, the block further having a third and fourth channel passing through the rear surface of the block, each of the channels having a first segment and second segment, the first segments in fluid connection with a second inlet hole and the second segments in fluid communication with at least one of the apertures;
• a plate secured to the rear surface of the block, the plate adapted to enclose the channels;
• and,
• a plurality of pins, wherein each pin is located within an aperture and each pin is deployable to a use position and retractable to a non-use position.

A jaw assembly for use in a vise, the jaw assembly permitting an object to be worked on to be secured and supported at an elevated position, the assembly comprising:

• a block having a first set, a second set, and a third set of apertures spaced a distance from the deck surface, the block further having a first, a second, and a third longitudinal channel passing through a portion of the block, each of the channels having a first segment in fluid connection with an inlet hole and a second segment in fluid communication with at least one of the apertures;
• a plurality of pins, wherein each pin is located within an aperture and wherein each yin is deployable to a use position and retractable to a non-use position;
• and
• wherein the first set of apertures intersect the first channel to define a first fluid passageway, the second set of apertures intersect the second channel to define a second fluid passageway, and the third set of apertures intersect the third channel to define a third fluid passageway.
