Hello Creekers!
My bench is FINALLY in production!
I'll post a separate thread with all the "deets" (details) later, but I am in need of a bit of help.
Initially, I had settled on using LV large front vises for both my front and end vises. Since the Borg timber was inexpensive enough, I figured that I could stretch the budget and spring for them.
While I may still do that, I was wondering if anyone had used just the bench screws they also sell to fabricate either a front vise or end vise? NOT a shoulder vise or traditional tail vise, but the simple front and end vises.
If you have, could I ask you to post some pictures of how you designed the framework of the vises?
Also, how are they to use day to day? Any regrets? Any advice on their construction?
Any help here, pics, drawings, links to other's designs would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Madcap
EDIT: To clarify.
What I am looking for are folks who used the simple bench screws as a foundation to fabricate shop made versions of the LV Large Front Vise. Sorry, I'm not sure I was all that clear in my initial post.
