  1. Finally got a stand made up for my Post Vise. Had to get some plate, pipe and a welder to put it together. The base is 24" diameter, I would go bigger next time. 3" Schedule 40 pipe, 1/2" inch top and bottom plate. The post the vise is sitting on is crooked, I wanted the vise to be straight. Hindsight I probably could have straightened the mount first... It's fairly stable as is, and when needed I can stand on the plate to add weight. I wanted it round to be able to move around in my small garage shop.
  2. Trying to re-open this thread to see if anything has changed. Any Coal near Southern metro Detroit area?
  3. Welcome to the forums. Pull up a log and enjoy the conversations. Looking forward to sharing with you. Jeff
  4. Key Jkindy, it's tobigforyou from BushcraftUSA.

  5. Nice use of materials. Your welds are looking great!
  6. I was getting ready to post the same thing. Thanks
  7. Simply elegant. Very pleasing and wont detract from the flowers, but rather add a bit of pizzaz. Nicely done. I am sure they will love it.
  8. Hi, thanks for friending me, I was going to build a Zoeller forge, but now I'm not sure. I might just want to buy one. First of all, I can't find the parts, and second of all, I don't have the tools. I'm not really a shop guy.
    If you can give me any advice let me know. My son and I would love to come out and see you when you have time.

  9. Great to hear of your success! Sounds like you could make a fortune in "S" Hooks!
  10. Looking good CV! Keep pounding that metal.
  11. Welcome aboard! Grab a hammer and step to the anvil! I too live in SE Michigan, Wyandotte to be specific. I have a portable smitty set up at my Dad's place. If you guys would like to come over, I would be happy to show you around the fire and anvil. I too am just starting out, but am well on my way (so I'm told). Jeff
