Stand for a Melton Mini Swade


Recommended Posts

Attached are pictures of the base I made for the mini swage block.  It was assembled from 4"x4" treated pine sections bolted together with 1/2" threaded rod.  1"x1" angle is attached with wood screws at the top to keep the swage block in place.  It fits snug in the base notch in the verticle position.  I think this will work well.  I may brace it to my work bench with a bar clamp if needed.

Looks like it should work well.  Since there are sedom any torquing or bending motions with a swage block in my experience I dobt that you will have to anchor it to anything more solid.
