marcusb Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I have finally got around to a project I need to complete while my old shop area still has power. I have what i think is a Peter Wright post vise. The jaws are 7" wide and what makes it unusual is that it has a sliding jaw that is adjustable. As always there is a catch.... the screw is missing. I do have the screw box just not the screw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kozzy Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Skuze my ignorance...but is there a specific reason or use for those little "hooks" below the jaws? I suppose they might relate to keeping screw-box parts from rotating or something but's usually done other ways on smaller vises. Neat toy that'll be a real gem when re-habbed back to working order.

marcusb Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 Decorative Hammer Deflectors...Don't ask me how I know there function....LOL. I think these are just more curved than normal, the whole vice shows a real high level of detail, well beyond any other post vise I have been around. I imagine it was pricey when new!
