    Big Fulton finished up. It turned out pretty good. Before After Setting beside it is a 150lbs. anvil that I got a couple weeks ago. It's my next project. It has writing on it, but can't make out the name yet. I was way off on my guess on the weight of this vise. I weighed it tonight. I used...

    It has 7" wide jaws. Yes I will get more picts soon. I will have help when I go back together with it. A guys got to be careful with one this size. About any part on it would mash, break a finger or a foot real easy.

    Here's mine. I have had it several years. I had no idea it was made in Poland. It is a quality made vise. I really like how the back jaw is the one that moves. Is there any info available on this vise? A couple of my Wilton's that get used every day. Here's an Erie that I have stashed back...
