Greetings and thank you for making this place available!

I'm retired, living in rural Skagit Co WA. and mainly a woodworker. Although I do enjoy pounding, bending and sticking pieces of iron together from time to time.

A while back I bought and old (don't know how to date it) Hollands 53 1/2 bench vice. Of course this was well before I had access to the wealth of information regarding purchase of a used vice but that's spilt milk so not whining intended.

I've got the beast dissasembled and starting the resto. I'd like to post photos and get some feedback but I'm just getting acquainted with the board so perhaps the moder-dudes/dudettes can point me to the proper forum where I should begin my oddesy.

Thanks again; this is really a great board!

Welcome to GJ, hdshinn. Glad you found us and hope we can help out. Woodworkers and all pounders are always welcome.

We like to be organized around here and we keep vises in the 'General Tool Discussion' thread. Members here have such a wide variety that a htread was started to show them all off. Today, there are over 2500 posts and 127 pages. It might take you a little time to get through that one... Here it is: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44782&highlight=vise

Have fun, but don't watch the clock where you are here. It spins way too fast when you do...

Yeah, I found that thread after starting a new one in the general garage area. Is there any way I can move what I've already uploaded into the 'vices' thread to help with organization? I'd welcome allowing the moder-folks doing it if they like.
