Default Im back

Take care there Gunner -

Things are going crazy out here as well. Slowing down.

Got my Rock Island Vice cleaned up and cold zinc'd then copper hammer painted.

The cotton picking good vice is so tight - big one - the sliding back
that the front jaw attached to - and rides on the lead screw - is rubbing
off paint down to metal. The paint will fill minor areas of wear.

No slop in this baby.

The only issue was a missing face on one of the jaws. Dad milled
an Aluminum one years ago. Just found out why he chose Al. Softer
jaw not to crush stuff.

I'll try to post a picture one of these days.
