Hi all,
Sorry Haven't posted in about 6-8 months( computer problems have kept me off list). Hopefully will have my new large forge up and running by the end of the month. Need help Id'ing this Very large post vise. Picked it up at a local auction last week and cleaned it up a lot. It is missing the spring( i have another one that should fit or i'll make a new one)as the one that was on there was a piece of jury rigged garbage. The box is solid bronze (as are the spacers). It weighs over 150 lbs(probably close to 180) and has 6.75" jaws. There is a 3/4 inch long chip out of the jaws but it is still a beauty. Looks similar to some peter wright vise pics i have seen( the double ring on the ball end of the screw and the very long lips on both post sections- pics 3 and 4). Any ideas?
