[TheForge] Columbian post vice

[Chris Caswell]

To all:

I just posted two pics of a small Columbian post vice my buddy bought last
weekend.  The "C" in the trademark is backwards..........is that common?  Is
that plate
die forged or cast?  He bought for $50.00, all rusty, with a bent leg and
jaws that were 3/4"
off end to end.  We took it apart, wire wheeled it, fired up the forge and
took all the kinks out.
Not a bad deal for some small cash and a few hours work.
