Got my first 'big vise' today. Loving it. I'm gonna have to get something to remove the flat head screws for the jaws

That is an awesome vise!!
Great score.

Does anyone have a spare base for this vise? The one ear is broken off on mine.

MMMM. Thats one of the best ever made.

I had a medium sized vise with a broken off hole. I looked in my junk pile and found an old Ford water pump with the right sized hole in it, and I put it in the chop saw and cut the hole off , then ground it to fit the broken edge . I preheated everything and brazed it on , looks damn close !! I don't tighten it real tight , just in case.....

Ok I think I am going to cut a piece out of a real big plate (~15/16ths thick!) and braze it on.

Too bad I've never brazed before...
