INTERESTING VISE FIND 9-7-18
« on: September 07, 2018, 10:59:53 PM »
I picked up this vise today at an estate sale.  If you look at this pics , Too me it looks kind of homemade. In shop class ? The base seems a bit light , welds are ok but not great  and no markings. It is quite heavy tho. What do you guys think ?

Yeah, kinda crude but hey - if I made that in class - I'd use it!

Looks way stouter than about 3/4 of vises out there. I'd have snagged it too if the price was right.

12 bucks. If I made that in shop class I'd be pleased with it.

The baseplate and welds look shetchy to me. Beating on it will soon tell.

looks good, run it.


At least the welds don't look like Ray Charles welded it up. :))
