.50 Cent Stanley Vise Rebuild

[C-Bag]

Wow, that's a cool little clamp. Never seen one like that before. Great save!

I've got an old Stanley wood vice that I put UHMW jaw pads on that was really handy. It didn't mount with a clamp like that, you had to screw it into the table. I used it all the time at my last job. This makes me want to pull it out of storage and put it back in use.

Thanks for sharing the build and save with us. Not sure how I missed this¿ Turned out Beautiful and a great functional tool again. The insight to see something like this and its possibilities, then restore it beautifully is what this great forum is all about! Love to find one like that to have some fun with! Thanks again, Mark!

Yes C-bag, it's called a corner vise, not common past woodworking for a reason i can't ascertain. Two versions; clamp-on and screw-on. Even with all the clamping [or other specific tools] various workers use, somethings just weren't introduced broadly.
Then that new-fangled internet deal comes along .comming and .netting the old into new. Too bad the old companies can't regain their prominence.
