Amazing what people chuck in the skip

Thanks Mike, but it is a bit small. Which shows how truly enormous the wretched thing is! With a handle the vice will be about 30" long. The travel is at least. 8", probably more. Thanks for the thought, though.

Regards,

Richard.

Richard, if you can't find a use for the vice, and no one else wants it, it will be a source of cast iron for years to come.

Have to confess I'd rather it were used for the job it was designed for. Maybe I need to get a milling machine on a suitable scale. Given the power supply to our single street village, I suspect a suitable machine would dim everyone's lights a lot when turning the motor on.

Regards,

Richard.

Once on My skip diving expeditions I found a really old Doctors exam table. Complete with stirrups.It had really old iron trimmings. It kept the Wife out of the garage till it was sold. Made $100 for just loading it up and writing a free ad. You should have seen all the horn beeping and fist pumping bringing it home during rush hour traffic. Loved every minute of it.
