Just watched a long video on how this guy made a big vice which I thought was interesting. I think that this might be the same guy who made a huge belt sander using go cart wheels, which some one posted up on this forum. Having said that, this guy has all the big gear in his workshop which most people won't have, but some of the things that he used the big machinery on can be worked around with a little bit of thought and some more basic tools. It might give a few members ideas on how to build a big vice.
Anyway here is the link,
He also made a video on destruction testing of about 9 regular vices compared to his,
These videos are quite lengthy but if you have some time to kill, they are good to watch.
Cheers
Ed.
