Vises (or vices in British English) are auxiliary tools to hold your workpiece, e.g. when you want to saw or drill through it. They have a fixed and a moving jaw which grip stuff when you turn the handle.
Bench Vises

| Type: | auxiliary tool |
| Material: | anything solid |
Bench vises are the "typical" vises you've probably seen on "universal" workbenches. The front jaw is often the moving one but some vises have a fixed front jaw.
Besides holding stuff, they are useful for bending metal pieces or tightening rivet connections (e.g. in some scissors) with great force and control.
Machine Vises

| Type: | auxiliary tool |
| Material: | anything solid |
Machine vises look very different from bench vises but serve the same purpose: making sure your workpiece doesn't go flying when you apply force to it. They are designed to hold the workpiece without damaging it and have usually a low profile to allow machining a large portion without remounting.
They may be secured by the user's hand (e.g. on a drill press) or bolted to the machine table (e.g. for milling).
