Thanks for this! Had my first traveler for over 20 years. Just picked up a limited blue traveler for the table. Was just putting it together and trying to lock down the crank arm when I saw this video.

I use lever in a different manner. End-most tight position for me is when lever is 90degrees to jaws and its most open when i let it hang freely (vertically down) I have been using my traveller for almost 15 years with zero maintenance. Only thing that broke was O ring and that side nylon screw.... Jaws are intact.

I’ve had my Traveler for somewhere around 20years and I learned something new. Thanks for this!

wow. really needed this video. been tying for years on this thing and didn't know how to properly adjust it lol

Thanks for the tips. I can definitely use them on my Renzetti Traveler vise.

Can the 'handedness' of the vise be reversed? IE can you make a LH vise RH? Looking online it appears so but haven't found an answer direct from Renzetti

Your vises are good, your customer service is THE WORST. As someone in the industry, I tell people to proceed with caution.

That's too bad. I've had a completely different experience. I called, spoke to a knowledgeable person, and received the service I needed in a timely. and reasonable manner. I teach very basic fly tying and recommend the Traveler regularly, with no regrets.
