    Very few have cut one, but many have shaped.

    Default making the leg vise

    Not much time available this weekend as I have other work to get done for my day job

    I've cut out the vise and shaped the curves. Lots of work still to go to 'pretty it up'. Karri is a rotten wood to plane, very splintery and wild grain.

    Pic 1 - the vise makes a great clamp rack

    Pic 2 - a bit of freehand cutting, now I have to sand it all down.

    Pic 3 & 4 - having a squiz to see if it looks right.
    Workbench Project.

    What? You use a rule, a vernier AND a calculator? Your gonna get tossed outta here if you keep it up with the accurate stuff! Groggy, you'll have to start clearing all the incriminating evidence out of the way before taking pics.
