PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

DSPIAE | AT-SV

Omnidirectional Spherical Vise

87 mm capacity and 1.6 kg of steel — for the pieces every other holder is too small for.

📏 87 mm — a different class of tool

Painting handles and compact vises are built around a 25–40 mm base. That covers rank-and-file miniatures and nothing else. The moment you move to a resin bust, an 80 mm display base, a large 3D print or a vehicle hull, they simply will not close around it — and you are back to holding an expensive, part-painted piece in your bare hand.

This one clamps up to 87 mm. That is roughly double what a compact table vise manages, and it is the difference between a tool that holds your figures and a tool that holds your centrepieces.

🔄 Turn it, look at it, lock it, carry on

The body is a precision-machined steel sphere, and the entire upper hemisphere rotates freely. A locking mechanism on the top switches it between free rotation and holding solid.

That sounds like a small thing until you are painting a bust. You want to check the work from the other side constantly — and with an ordinary clamp that means unclamping, turning the piece, re-clamping, and hoping you have not put a thumbprint in wet paint or marked a blend you spent an hour on.

Here you unlock, spin, look, lock, and keep going. The piece never leaves the jaws. There is no angle you cannot bring round to face you.

🏋️ Why 1.6 kg

Hold a heavy bust off-centre in a light vise and the whole thing tips. That is not a theoretical problem — it is the reason most people stop using cheap holders for large work.

The main body is 1.6 kg of high-grade steel. It stays put under an off-centre load, and the mass damps vibration rather than passing it into the part — which matters when you are working at the point of a brush on something that took a week to get this far.

🧶 How it holds awkward shapes

▪ Triangular jaw slots, 0.64 mm deep and 1.27 mm wide. Cylindrical parts, barrels, and pieces with a thin tail or sprue stub grip directly in the jaws — no bars needed, and no crushing force required.

▪ Repositionable dowel bars. Move them to suit the shape rather than forcing an irregular part to sit square. Between the bars and the jaw slots, very little is unholdable.

▪ Silicone rubber sleeving. Bare steel dents resin and marks paint. The bars are sleeved so the tool protects the piece it is gripping.

▪ CNC machined to 0.02 mm. Guide rail and screw run in synchronisation, so the jaws close evenly and adjust finely instead of jumping.

📦 What's in the box

✔ 1 × AT-SV spherical vise

✔ Hex key wrench for the jaw and hemisphere locking screws

🤔 Which DSPIAE vise do you need?

Model	Capacity and purpose
AT-HV hand-held	Up to a 40 mm base. Held in your hand while you paint. Light and portable.
AT-TVA&B table	43 mm. Sits on the bench and frees both hands — decals, photo-etch, assembly.
AT-SV this one	87 mm. Busts, large display bases, big 3D prints, vehicle sections. The only one that takes serious size and weight.

Straight answer: if you paint 28–32 mm figures, this is more tool than you need and the hand-held AT-HV will serve you better for less. Buy this one because your pieces are large, heavy, or both.

💡 Looking after it

Do not take it apart. The manufacturer is explicit about this — the spherical assembly is machined to a fine tolerance and dismantling it causes damage that cannot be put right.

Keep solvents off it. Acids, alkalis and other corrosive liquids will mark the finish. Wipe up thinner spills rather than leaving them to sit.

Handle it like the 1.6 kg it is. Dropped on a foot or a tiled floor it will do damage in both directions.

⚖️ Honest limitations

Overkill for standard miniatures. If your work is 28–32 mm figures, a hand-held vise or a painting handle does that job better and for far less money.

It lives on the bench. At 1.6 kg this is not something you carry to a club night or take on holiday.

It is a holding tool, not a workshop vise. Built to hold delicate work steady, not to clamp something while you apply real force to it.

Not for children under 14. Heavy, with a clamping mechanism and small components.
