Had a chance to move this where I could take some pictures:

I just slip a hand-truck underneath to move outside or walk it on two
legs. Used mostly for sharpening mower blades and small welding
projects. Really like the added vice and mounted locking plier.

The aluminum crossbar in image one is for a welding ground clamp.
I thought the aluminum to steel connection might go bad at some point
but well over 20 years now and it hasn't...


That's a cool little table. It looks very handy and versatile, yet
compact. 2 vises + threaded holes = nice.


The holes are stepped, not threaded so the locking plier will mount


Ahh, so they are, so they are. So you have two rows of 3.


flush to the table. I've got two of them, only one made it into the
picture. They have a loop shaped nut below. Very much like this from HF
if not the same:

Yes, handy gadgets.


They work really nice for holding down a mower blade while sharpening
with an angle grinder.


Yeah, those would work a treat for that. Then quickly disconnect to
weigh the outcome on a nail clamped in the swivel vise.
