TWISTEDWILLOW Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Looks good to me! I have one of my post vises that close to my forge, I don’t think you’ll run into trouble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natkova Posted July 3, 2022 Author Share Posted July 3, 2022 Thanks for advice , well i had it mounted on stump. issue was i wasnt able to even twist stuff in it now its have enaugh wideness. I had to make it a litle bit out of shape becasue doors i was walking in and it will get in way so it is like trapezoid shape because i had to save some space. One question is it safe to weld stuff in vise? I welded one threaded rod i needed it more lenght so i welded both threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irondragon Forge ClayWorks Posted July 4, 2022 Share Posted July 4, 2022 Should be OK as long as you don't weld stuff to the vise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Ground to the stationary jaw as close to the work as possible or to the work itself. You do not want the current passing through the screw and screw box threads, it buggers them up. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
