I am about to braze up this little bullet vise. Owner removed the base and dynamic jaw but did not remove the cap or female thread part inside.
How do I get those parts out of this casting?

If you look carefully around the outside of the body casting... maybe 1/2"-3/4 below where your finger is, you should find a solid drive pin...
knock it out with a drift punch... I took a wood dowel to pop the cap out with a hammer from inside the vise body....

No expert, but thought it was two separate pins that needed to be driven out from the inside.

Depending on the model and year, some had a single pin and some had two pins...

Thanks fellas. The video helped too.
I have it apart and did some preliminary grinding on it so the brazing will stick.
