2ball_thepriest Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Does anyone know where to get a leg vise cheap. I've checked ebay and they are mostly $200+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brasilikilt Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Hey I got my post vise off Ebay for around $20.00, it actually cost more to ship it from Arkansas to my house in Oregon! Its beaten up, and has some metal welded on to repair it, I´ve flailed on it a lot, and still works fine. I suspect you havent been watching ebay auctions very closely. If you check often, you will find some `lesser`vises out there which dont have a collector value, but are perfectly usable for a smith. Also check Craigslist...... If you cant find a post vise, you can still use a bench vise for a lot of things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 WHAT COUNTRY ARE YOU IN? Or are you willing to buy a cheap vise and pay international shipping? I bought a 6" post vise for $50 last Quad-State Blacksmith's Round Up; if you are in driving distance of it I'd try there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluidsteel Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I bought a Beautiful 6" Post vise from a scrap/salvage yard in Salem Or for $150. It was a fair price, not a steal. But, they had 5 more in the bin rusting away waiting for a home.... My first post vise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
