Looks like it's been supper a few times

No kidding, It will probably snap in half first time it's used, quickly releasing your workpiece right to the floor.

But, hey, it's only $40.00. Such a deal. :rotflm:

LMAO, $40. Only if it can be proven it was once used by australopithecus robustus.

Guess it "wood" have been a vise if the termites hadn't got to it :rotflm:

Go

I have a similar vise sans termite damage. I plan to rebuild mine after I looked at the prices of large diameter Acme screws, handle etc. :wsmile:

I've been thinking about buying a metal lathe to make acme screws. Wonder if there is a market for them?

A 2 inch double helix Acme screw would be fast and strong.
