A new screw and screw-box is easy to make. I get bent scaffolding leveling assemblies from a scaffolding rental place, and cut off a straight part of the screw. I make a screw-box from the nut and plumbing parts. They come out nice and usable and look good too. I wouldn't try to sell a repaired vise as an antique.
