Can the head swivel independent of the mounting base, I'd like to tap holes into a piece mounted to a large vise.

Yes it can but I'm not sure if the head unit has a set screw to keep it in place and prevent it from swiveling.

I have it mounted horizontally, can't remember if it could be turned vertically.

You can detach the swivel but I do not believe there are any screw holes. I use a universal phone holder to mount mine in my truck. Mot sure how tha would work on a cycle.

Compatible in what way. It's not a heavy duty steel vise that will hold big heavy objects, but is is very strong and well made. It will hold your project easily and tilt or swivel most any angle. I am sure it would also hold most any Dremel tool, I just have not tried that. You can tighten it plenty tight enough, maybe not as tight as a steel vise, but just fine for most of your craft projects. I like it and felt it was well worth the money.

Yes it does swivel in all directions and comes apart easily for one person to install or take off. You just pull two pins for the head to come off and the base can then be removed by itself. When removing the head hi have to wiggle and pull at the same te as it take some coaxing to come out, same when reinstalling it.

Yes, that hole is where in mounts into. Those tabs on the side are what take the place of the swivel.

Yes, definitely. The head piece pivots off a large Allen head screw axle. You can tighten the Allen screw and also the two locking screws on top that can be hand tightened. It's a redundant system and very sturdy. It's one of the best features.

Yes, the mount connects to the clamp base by a ball and socket, so you can rotate it any way you need to

It can be but it doesn't work like a typical screw on head. There's a screw on the side of the head that holds it in place and allows it to rotate completely around. If you remove this screw you would be able to take the head off but you wouldn't be able to put a new head on if it has threads. I wouldn't recommend this piece. Also if you're just looking for an arm, you can find those sold stand alone.

You should be able to, but it will have to be bolted vertically--won't pivot horizontal/vertical.

Yes. It has a standard thread mount. I use alternate heads on it all the time.

The bar in the handle will turn freely when the bar is placed in the middle of the screw part. It can be slid sideways for added leverage to tighten the vise more.

Yes, it can. You just fully unscrew the adjustment nut and the mount comes right off. Or I think it does anyway! I'm writing this in India but will be back home in London tomorrow and will confirm this for you, if you'd like to hold off ordering it. Cheers...

Yes, if you are asking about the base rotation right and left. The right/left rotation is not smooth because the internal parts have teeth. That is you must loosen both locks and lift the vise to rotate. This is more work to rotate the vise, but you do not have to hit the lock bars with hammer to be sure it stays in place while working.

Yes Chris it swivels 360 deg. and it has 2 base locks. Very happy with this vise.

It can screw directly to the box yes. But it's orientation will be defined by box placement. It might not be positioned as you like. Using the drop nut mounting will allow you to rotate fixture to align it as you like. It's one method or the other not both.

i do not see how it would unscrew and be replace by another size head. i do love mine though for what that's worth!
