    Simple vice mount.

    We have been doing some much-needed housekeeping in the shop lately. Whenever I get one of those errant hair growing in a dark place I start doing things like mounting collet racks on the wall, finding places to create a place to hang combination wrenches Mounting shelves and making a work bench O finding a vice that needs to have a place to be mounted so it can be put to use.
    The vice itself is to put it mildly a piece of garbage in its present form, even if it does have the word Wilton cast on it I suspect it is even lower quality than most things brought over on a boat.
    here is the mount I welded it to the leg of my tilting layout/ fixture table.
