Got one of the stainless versions of the Chainmeister bar-clamp/vise from Tree Stuff, http://www.treestuff.com/store/catalog.asp?item=3459 , so thought I'd pass along some photos of how I use it on the truck, but also comment that it functions perfectly, and I have no complaints, period. It's made heavy-duty: water-jet cut from plate steel. Quality product that works as advertised, and at a decent price.

I did not use the screws that came with the Chainmeister, instead purchasing some stainless 3/16" lag bolts and washers. The wooden block is 1 1/8" white oak. Just a left-over piece from another project.

You can see in the photos how the board's position is moved on the tailgate (overhang and no overhang) so that the powerhead remains supported during the filing of the chain, no matter which side is being filed. This set-up is rigid, with no wiggle at all.
