    That's a goodly chunk of vise, I like. There's one on UK eBay but he has it listed as a record and it's more money than I'd like to pay, maybe one day I'll get my chance.

    I've done it many times, I like to fix up wood work machines and it's a common task when doing that as the thick castings are rarely drilled right through and I'd don't like being responsible for distorted badges.

    I've a similar one, it's the one that sat in Dad's garage through my youth. I'm not sure how he came by it but it's branded USSR and I'm in the UK. I've seen the same on UK ebay a couple of times I like the very stout handle.
