Large Engineers Vice *

I have a WODEN 190/8A engineers vice for sale. It has 6" jaws and opens to 7". It also has a quick release trigger on the front which allows operation of the jaws opening without winding the handle. The vice is mounted on a metal plate table (home made - rustic, but functional). Also on this table is a 5" hand operated metal cutting guillotine which can cut flat sheet or bar. There is also the facility to cut round / square bar to approx 12mm thick. Handle has broken at some point but has a "functional" handle adapted for use. (A quick fix for anyone who knows anything about this aparatus). These items came from my dads garage when I cleared it out. He had used them for many years for wrought iron work (gates, etc) and the table was cobbled together so that his welder sat underneath and the table was in the middle of the garage to facilitate ease of earth connection to any welding he was doing. Both items are probably 25 - 35 years old (or older) but both still work. Collection only.
