cast iron repair

Well I guess to an engineer the terms Nickle brazing rod and Nickle welding rod mean the same thing.

To a life long blacksmith, welder they mean two distinct things that ​do two distinct things.​ As far as I'm concerned not much practical welding gets accomplished in a college class room anyway.:shrugs:

I had my grandfathers vise and broke the "slide" in half. Couldn't stand to get rid of it so it lived under the bench for many years.
In a brainstorm one day i decided to make it into a woodworking vice.

I cut the main body down and added a mounting plate, guides, slides, and mounting plates for wood jaws.
It turned out great. It mounts under the bench "upside down" from original position but using the original mounting holes.
