FinnOnTheTank Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 A couple weeks ago I went out looking for a post vise. I hit a few antique shops and didn't have much luck. I left a note with the largest antique shop I went to. 2 hours later an older man called me and had this. An old Iron City vise. It's a little over 5 inches. I cleaned it up with a wire cup and BLO. The next project is building a stand for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daswulf Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Not bad at all in my opinion. Sure was a bit rusty but the screw is in nice shape and it should last past your lifetime. Good investment if you use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
