Art, Thanks for sharing.. even unintentionally! You sir are the ultimate DIY guy and I for one enjoyed every bit of your build project. You have great taste in bikes too. All the best, Rob

1000sqft machine shop 1000sqft paint and bodywork 1000sqft welding/fab shop 1000sqft working shop space 2000sqft apartment The rest for trailer parking and indoor storage of projects and parts cars Sell the house and move in.... Doooo it!

Thank you MC for bringing "free parking' back soon! I for one was not phased much by the political and religious views expressed... just something to skip over. I know my views on the two subjects and have never felt the need to cram them down someones throat via argument. I am even less likely...

Wish I could make it, but I'm off to Texas to deal with a family emergency. Beer and bench racing sounds like more fun!

Interesting, ballast where you want won't get you back to the GT4 weight? My experience is all GT1.... What is your goal? "Win the Runoffs" or go play at fun tracks in regionals or nationals?

Hey Vicegrip, What class are you planning on running the Porsche in? Rob

Yeh, we did kind of hijack that one didn't we... North Columbia pike checking in on the new thread. My name is Rob- I've been a car & garage junkie for 43 years. Currently in withdrawal and living in an apartment in the city. My toys are stashed in my sisters barn 70 miles away.... 67 Lotus...

Have you seen what the kids in grade school can do with a computer!?? If you had those skills you'd be running the board. Your welcome for the help... a Sunday morning mystery to solve is always good. Rob

They look like the jaws in Fig 2 & 5 of that patent.

Ron, I looked around Daikins site a bit.... Do you have any .pdf files of their product line range you could post a link to? Rob

Posting the patent number would be enough to go find it. The one I found was dated 1898 and must have been an earlier version. Again, very cool vice! I would be torn between using it and keeping it just for it's... errrr... coolness! Maybe a compromise.... someplace in the garage where it will...

Cool vise you have there! Does the label have a patent number? I just did a quick search on Google Patents for a "removable jaw hanson vise" and it returned a very similar (but not the same) vise with the same forked jaws. It even had a hand crank drill attachment.

Not the one I was thinking of... but it does have this link in it. http://www.maplevalleytruss.com/GeneralInfo.htm Lots 'o' truss info there. I can't find the thread either... sorry
