Could attach a few of those extra magnets to the bottom of your vice, then put a piece of steel on your work table/bench to keep the vice from sliding around like @ 8:40. That way, the vice isn't fastened down permanently and you can still move it around as needed.

JB Weld fixed the little cable wheel thing on the throttle body of my Honda Accord. It's plastic and the part that holds the cruise control cable had snapped off so the cable wouldn't stay attached and the cruise didn't work. I use my cruise on a daily basis and not having it is not an option so I JB Welded the cable in place with plans to fix it more permanently at a later date. As with most things, that date never came but good ol' JB was still holding strong when I sold the car several years later.
