I've got the No.145. It took a long time to find an extra one (I needed extra collars) as they're not as common as the slightly larger No.146.
If I was starting a-new I would opt for the No.146 - because they're more common, and because if you get stuck there are firms in UK selling new ones and spare replacement collars (Boston brand I think). HTH

I think I might have a spare. Send me a pm. Is it the smaller of the two? Damien.

Thanks, have seen 146 . There are lots of 145 in UK but the chap selling them won't bother with postage. Shame. Will keep looking for a while yet, as have one only so far. May even make some brass collars. That would like nice too,
Regards, Ron

That's it has "145" on top of collar casting. About 21 mm hole. Will take it if available, this model suits my bench a little better.

Are they a simple sort of shape?
You could ask on the metalwork forum about getting some made.
Cheers,

Hi Brandavino. How did you get on? Did you source the holdfasts and collars you need?
The reason I ask is I've just bought another No.145 and I'll have at least one spare collar.

It's even easier than that. Epoxy degrades under heat. Use an air blow heat gun on the collar, moving constantly and trying to keep the heat on the metal and not the bench top as much as possible. You need 350f or 177c, which you can get to without damaging the wood at all if you are patient. Even if you make a little mistake, the worst that can happen is a surface scorch which will sand out easily.
When it hits that heat the epoxy turns to white powder, and the screws and collar should come out easily.
