Panavise Jr. Base Mount Bracket

Been looking for a use for a nice chunk of aluminum, while at the same time wondering how to address the limitations of my Panavise Jr's suction cup.  Voila!

I've found the suction cup only works well on clean smooth surfaces, so I had to use a piece of glass on my bench.  No issues with this, but the solution was not always convenient.

The vise's base slides into the slot of the bracket, so no need to use, or even remove, the suction cup.  You can slip it out of the bracket, if you choose, and then use the suction cup if you have a place where it will hold effectively.

The bracket could be attached to any work surface or (as in my case) a movable platform.  The heavier the platform, the better.  I intend to attach two helping hands once they arrive in the post.
