Found an old vice in a storage compound two weeks ago.

Got it sandblasted...

Freed it up with some heat and WD40 and brought it home...

When we bought our last house there was the Mega Bench of evAr in the Garage complete with Record Vice and nobby here thought "ooh lets take that old shitter to the tip to make some room" so off it went.

Decision FAIL.

I had one of those too, then converted garage into kitchen. :oops:

At least I 'recycled' the bench, (via the chimney). Can't for the life of me recall what happened to the vice, unless of course Bailles found it
