Default Chainsaw stand, used mainly for sharpening chains

Heres something I made to use instead of my vice.

It's an electromagnetic lock used in access controlled doorways.
push button on, bar sticks, so well infact, that you cant remove it until you push button off.
beats my vice anyday.

Will anyone use this idea?

It is a neat idea. However, I have never ran across an electromagnetic lock in all my years of scrounging.

But..............If I ever do find one.............I'm going to snag it.
