That is much nicer than anything that would have popped into my head, let alone what I could build. It's impressive.

Royce, where is the best place to get steel up there in Fairbanks?

This stand has ruined me. Now anything out there that I see looks like junk compared to this piece of art.

Of course the next question is when are you going to start accepting orders from other GJ members? I have a railroad vise that would love a home on top of a stand like this. :)

I get it Horse, it would be tough to top this stand, at least for me, anyways.
But that is no reason to stop trying!

As far as taking orders, a couple considerations are freight and labor.
Freight from Fairbanks will be somewhere between $450 and $1200, depending on weight.
This one off stand has around 20 hrs of labor in it.

So, it is easy to see how crazy stupid the price could get.

I'm game to listen to any proposals that anybody has.

Thank you

Royce

Just noticed the finished pic was not added. Been using it for 4 years and just love it. I’m a machinist and don’t like the serrations marking my work. I added Bronze faces to my jaws.

Royce thanks again.
