I will be installing NewAge Pro 3.0 cabinets in the Garage soon. I will have an L-shaped Bamboo Top workbench in the corner measuring 56" one side and 84" on the other not counting the 24"x 24" corner connector piece. Also I have a Snap On KRL 7022 (54" wide) with Stainless steel top that will reside next to the base cabinets/workbench.
Point of note: I will be wall mounting the NewAge cabinets above the garage concrete base (stem-wall?) and 4" baseboard molding. My opinion is that the cabinets look much better off the ground and I can clean my metallic epoxy floor with the water hose without damaging the cabinets or their contents.
QUESTION (Fianlly)
Where should I mount the bench vise? Ideally I would like it on the workbench, but I am worried that the wall mounted bases to the NewAge Cabinets will not hold up?
I could mount the vise to the top of the toolbox,
however 
I think that may be like putting a spoiler on a 'vette (no offense intended if you have one); just think it ruins the clean look of the Gloss black Toobox with a stainless steel top?
I am a lowly DIYer and won't have a need to punish the vise like some. Only use it to hold things while repairing, drilling, cutting...etc.
Am I ok with bench mounting the vise to the Bamboo Tops on the wall mounted NewAge Cabinets?
