monstermetal Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Not good for much. They are very light and no good mounting. I had one I couldn't get $5 for at the blacksmith swap so it went in the scrap tub Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainely,Bob Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 What that is used for up here is to clamp planking onto wooden boats.I have heard of folks attempting to rig them up as vises but I think it would be a lot of trouble for too little return. I`d just use it as a heavy clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyancarrek Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Boat plank clamp? Woulda never guessed! Agreed that it wouldn't have much use in the shop - just wondered what it might have been used for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have given you five bucks just for a wall hanger. I had to add "metal" to the first sentence so no one would feel bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
