Hey all, I saw this vise on Craigslist yesterday and couldn't find any info on who made it, etc. It looks to be pretty solid, and they say it weighs about 75lbs and has 5" jaws, which seemed like a good sign. I already have a nice Yost 8" vise, but I'm moving that out to my barn, and want...

I'm starting to cover the interior walls with steel liner panels, and I'm not sure how to go about putting trim in the window framing. I can use flashing with a 90* bend, and put one piece per side, but that's going to leave gaps at all four interior corners where they meet. The local...
