Hi to all long time no messages,
Do you have the chance of going around to find a second hand vice(of a known
manufactuerer) from a secondhand tool dealer, grenrally they are of good
construction with the strength wear it required even if the jaws may need a
skim.
we have quite alot of second hand tool dealers where you can buy a vice for
about half the price you would pay for a new far eastern one.
speak to the group more soon.
regards John Burridge
