Reversepolarity Posted March 13, 2016 Share Posted March 13, 2016 I am always looking for different tools. Came across this leg vise. Seems to have been home made. But was made VERY well. It is offset, and will be great for long work. It has 8 1/2" wide jaws, and closes very straight and tight. The rear jaw is the movable jaw.

Reversepolarity Posted March 15, 2016 Author Share Posted March 15, 2016 Tore the vise down tonight to wire wheel, and wipe down with linseed oil. Whoever made did a great job. No electric welds anywhere. Wonder how old this thing is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been looking for an 8" leg vise for a couple of years. Most of my work is making obsolete parts (heavy work) for loggers, and farmers. This vise being offset is a great bonus for long work. I also like the depth of the jaws, they hold work very nice for file work. The best part was the price $60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
