New vise idea

[Sycan]

Probably not new, but I picked up this import Wilton cheap the other day to mount on my forklift. Thought I would share as I know several people here use little forklifts around their shop. I use this one constantly, sometimes as nothing more than a workbench outside with a pallet on the forks. Now I'll have a vise handy if needed.

Little more counter weight, probably just upped the lift capacity by 100 lbs. Probably best use yet for a CWV.

Kinda bulky for a vise stand... But use what ya got laying around, right?!?!

Is it mounted out far enough that the handle swings around 360° without obstruction all the way until it's closed?

I gotta get to a point of having forklifts hanging around...

I couldn't live without it, best $1000 I ever spent! I loaded it in my brand new dump trailer today so I can take it to a job tomorrow.

Thanks, mostly doing big trucks and trailers now, but that's just kind of where the best jobs led. Still pretty much equipped to handle anything.

Nice! Yours looks way more fancy though.
