I have a Chas Parker 135 'big bear' vise. Its missing one of the jaws (5 inch jaws on this model).
I understand these are not easy to replace.
Im wondering if anyone is willing to take on the task of making some for me, im not picky on material. aluminum , copper, steel, even 3d printed ones. im just looking to make this vise usable again. Please drop a message if you can help. or know someone who can.

I have both paypal and interac e-transfer to pay.

KMScott used to make all the vise jaws here. He has retired but is training a replacement. He may be able to point you in the right direction.

Good luck! Those big bear vises have been on my list to find for a long time!

Yes I had a chat with him. The new business owners will not be making Chas Parker jaws.

Im also open to buying an old jaw face and trying to get it to fit somehow. Im not picky at all on appearance.
I took a quick look on ebay but didnt see anything at the moment
