<http://www.panavise.com/index.html?pageID=1&page=full&--eqskudatarq=25> is the Panavise model 315 circuit board holder page.  I loved this fixture with a standard base many years ago.  Flexible, secure and surprisingly inexpensive for the functionality provided.  (I used it to wire-wrap a large number of prototype computer boards back in the late 1970's and early 1980's.)  Great tool.  (Mine didn't have the quick-release; I just used the spring jaw to pop boards in and out.)

Regards,
Donald.
