Looking at getting a peak rotary vise but not sure what vase would be best for tying streamers. Never use a pedestal but really like the idea that you can set it up anywhere. Do you find they move around too much when tying big streamers pulling tight heavy thread?
Pedestal. It's so nice to be able to place the vice where you want it. Most of the time when I am winding thread my left hand is on the barrel of the vice anyway, so I never noticed any movement.

Have used various clamp vises for almost 50 years of tying; the clamp holder is an integral part of my fly tying bench. That being said on several trips to the coast I have clamped a vise to a motel table. I guess if you're frequently going to tie in different places and need the portability then a pedestal would be the way to go.
I don’t like pedestal vices because when I am tying big streamers where you need to pull the thread with a little extra force you have to stabilize your vice with one hand. If I ever grow a third hand I may switch lol
Clamp or pedestal for tying vise
