Wrenchguy,

Do you still have this vise? I just picked one up today and it's missing the pipe jaws. Any chance you could trace them on paper? I'll buy you a 6 pack :beer:

Right on. I just removed the SO from the bay. I'll pm you.

I need to strip paint on mine, but it looks like someone brazed where the bottom of the static side meets the mounting plate. But only for the forward-most inch...on both sides. IDK, I'll find more when I strip it. Mines a 4.5" jaw.

I can make out "SUUPLY CO" on one side, but that's all for now. :beer:
