Nice score with the cold saw Darren. Seen them go for much more money needing much more TLC. Nice score with the widow too, might be a treasure trove there. I cut through the forklift tine upright (about the same size as yours) on my bandsaw with a 10-14tpi blade, took a while but did the job. It's proving to be nice material to work with.
Pepi, I've been searching for a shaper vice since the day I bought the shaper- looking at my thread on it it was only last August, seems longer. I had started to toy with the idea of making one myself.
Greg, I meant to weigh the vice before mounting it but forgot to do so- the eBay listing stated it was 40kg. I suspect it is a little more than that but probably not too much more. Seems I need to take it off again to give it a coat of paint, if that ever happens I'll weigh it.
