Dillon Sculpture Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Dusted off some scroll jigs, Hinged to allow a longer heat, also a cam holds the penny to start on the first one. Handy one foot square tables that can be moved around from station to station. Also for you out there that think my floor is never dirty, shame on you!

MLMartin Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Its a Wilton vise, probably 8inch jaws, nice heavy vice for the shop, but its still a machinist vise so i try not to pound on it to much, normaly has soft AL jaw covers on it, keep from marring the work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arftist Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 An 8" Wilton machinist's vise is one of the few you can actualy hammer on, since it is made from ductile iron. Of course, a leg vise is to be prefered for heavy hammer work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillon Sculpture Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 It comes in a kit, $250.00 plus SH info at www.dillonforge.com The vise is only a 6" it just looks bigger because it has the pipe dies under the jaws. Don't need to worry about beating on it I already broke it at the weakest point, the swivel dogs, I replaced them with a solid disc of 3/8" plate.

Mainely,Bob Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Also for you out there that think my floor is never dirty, shame on you! It`s not really dirty till it crunches under foot and imbeds in the soles of your shoes so you get chewed out by Mom cause her floor gets scratched. Then you don`t get to wear your shoes in the house no more and your boots get rained on all the time,your socks wear faster and you slip down the cellar steps more so your butt stays bruised a lot. It just never ends.man!!! The silver lining is that Mom`s cat doesn`t get to xxxx in your boots anymore cause she can`t get to them thru the screen door. Now the squirrels take over for the cat though.That drives her right up the screen and you have to replace THAT! Like I said,it never ends. Keep that broom handy!!!
