Let's see your vise stand

Take a pic of how you have your leg vise mounted and share them. I want to make a new mount and need to see if someone doesn't have an idea I just got to have!

Hey Bill,
That sounds like a grand idea, I have a post vice that needs mounting and would like to see what folks have to offer, too.

Mine was a pinched design from the Blueprints.

4" steel pipe (complete with flange) and whatever bits of scrap were about at the time.

here is my vise, its mounted to a 4" pipe welded inside a semi truck brake drum, i can fill it with wheel weights, take them out to move it outside if i want, or i can bolt it to the floor to make it more solid, i try to keep some of my stuff portable so when its nice i can work outside till i get the addition on my shop

Here is a pic of the one I made. Can drag it around the shop to whichever forge I am working with.

Bill,

You don't have problems with it moving around on you? Can you share what stock it's made from?

Rick I haven't had much opportunity to use it yet but if it starts to move around on me I will attach a standing area out of 1/4" plate to it. The top and base are 5/8" plate.
