Home made tools...

I have a large one as well. Jaws are only 5" wide but she weight a ton. Blacksmith's vice. Made so that you can bash the hell out of them, unlike most bench vices. But she's no precision instrument.

@Cremulator its missing the mounting plate but thats
no problem.
Mount it on a stump , you can pound all day with a 5lb mash
hammer and you wont stress the vice at all.
Perfect for any heavy jobs and I mean heavy jobs.
Grab some chalk and rub on the back of the jaws
it may have a makers mark like Peter Wright considered
the Guru of leg vices and anvils
How wide are the jaws on you leg vice???
Heres three proper tools add my furnace and you can make anything
he he he

Yeh it was welded to a steel table. You can see where I had to cut the welded tabs where the old mounting plate would have been.
I think the jaws are about 150mm wide. I'll have to measure them when I get a chance.

Blacksmith made and sold by weight.

@MB that was the old work bench we bought on Gumtree years ago which had that attached to it. I use it all the time haha

Bit of copper pipe, welder and a screwdriver to make an easy out for bolts broken deep into the thread.

Can’t take credit for this concoction (Youtubey) but have been carrying around both emergency parts for a little while now:


As soon as the Superglue hits the Bi-Carb you need to move incredibly quick before the strongest ever Epoxy type joint is bonded


Would easily patch a plastic OEM Nissan Radiator too, keep em in your kit

Thank you so much Hodgey Mate!!
Makes total sense now Brother Appreciated
The reason I completely broke my cookers plastic dial off was the right side completely jammed on dangerously so the Leatherman Multitool had to kick into gear ripping it off and then using its pliers to contain the situation
Debacle, but still the best wind ‘resistant’ cooker I’ve owned to date
