Bowland Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Posted on a UK Forum I was looking for a leg vice and scored with this one within an hour Only 20 miles from home Picture as it came into shop and after a quick ten mins with a scraper and some cleaning mix Paid thirty gbp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Turley Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 It looks like a Peter Wright. I found in my travels to Australia, Canada, and the British Isles that the legs on Peter Wrights are slightly chamfered as yours is, but the ones imported to the U.S. were deeply chamfered. I don't know the reason, just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't the foggiest who made it unfortunately I doubt it's been used from when the smithy it came from closed The guy I bought it from had it years but never fit it. The guy he got it off had it likewise These things only have value to guys who use them don't they just. He was about ready to chuck it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
