Pruss: Yep, I just open the vise, slide the buffer out and store it under my bench. Lately, I keep buying pipes so it has been staying on the bench.... I mounted two wall-mount shelves for my buffing pads. Pretty efficient, in a small space. Supplies are kept in the cabinet above and a little three drawer shelf below. That work bench is primarily for my car/motorcycle work, but lately it's been getting pipe priority!
