Flynn Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Hi folks, I just picked up this one and I'm about to start cleaning it up. Anyone ever seen or heard of this maker before? It's a new one for me and I've not been able to find any history on it. J.B.Piron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I'm thinking J B Piron is a previous owners name. I have one that could be it's cousin (same mounting) and there are no markings at all on mine. Although on closer inspection yours appears to be much older due to the strait moveable jaw leg and the riveted plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 Interesting! I had not thought of that, but it's certainly possible. I need to get it cleaned up so I can see if there are any other markings. So far this is it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWISTEDWILLOW Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 That’s very interesting! I don’t think I’ve ever seen one with a riveted plate on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flynn Posted August 5, 2021 Author Share Posted August 5, 2021 I had thought the riveted plate was more common with German-made post vises, but that's based on very limited information. Either way, I love the look of this one and was excited to find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
